More 50's-80's music videos

Hey all, I'm starting another music video thread, just for songs in the above timeframe. If you have any faves please share!

Here's one I found last week. You'll need headphones and a decent sound card to appreciate it:

Wow!! Although a purist wouldn't really like it, Andy Williams adds a little something to it all. Amazing talented duo. Wish their differences had been so deep and intense.

I always like posting videos!

Here is perhaps my favorite song of all time and my favorite group as well!

These Dreams ~ Heart

There's always room for some Supremes. My 2nd Favorite Motown group!

The original lineup: Florence Ballard, Mary Wilson, Diane Ross with Bobby Darrin.

'Falling in Love with Love' From the Rogers and Hart album.

Here's one more S&G tune. This one was recorded live in NYC in 1967, and included in their "Old Friends" compilation in 1997.

Sorry no video, just audio.

Pre-record deal B-52's in 1978, featuring Fred playing a Mickey Mouse toy piano to great effect, a radiant Keith Strickland on drums, and Ricky Wilson (R.I.P.) wailing on guitar.

From Georgia State University's archives. Rock Lobster and a few other B-52's tunes are also available.

Oh my gosh, those B-52's give me the chillbumps. I have everything they ever did and more. Partymix is my fav. Didnt Ricky die of AIDS? So sad. But those girls are so cute. But as far as my fav video, that would be THE GRATEFUL DEAD "going to hell in a bucket." Any Deadheads out there in San Fran? I saw them as a teenager at Manor Downs in Texas. And yes I did acid there by the way. 5 bucks a blotter hit. haha. What a long strange trip its been?

 

[jeffg]

Keith, yes, Ricky died of AIDS on October 12, 1985. He was a brilliant guitarist, and the band never sounded as good (IMO) after that.

Here's some vintage Zappa, one of the few times I've seen him giggle onstage:

 

[kenmoreforever]

anyone remember Frank zappa's children? Wasnt his daughters name "Moon?"

 

[kenmoreforever]

there's a moon in the sky called "the moon." B-52's.
