Alternative Nation MTV UK Toby Amies Final pt 4/13

In the mid 90's MTV's shining star was floppy-haired Toby Amies, shuffling his feet on behalf of the disaffected yoof of the era, and introducing them to the weird and the wonderful of alternative and underground indie rock. This was his final programme before shooting off to the USA, and Toby shows some of his favourite music videos, which include Captain Beefheart, Stereolab, Girls Vs Boys, Barry Adamson and sessions from the likes of Pere Ubu's Dave Thomas and Calvin Johnson.

In this part Toby plays videos by Evil Superstars and the late, great Wesley Willis, and states that is job is up for grabs.
