Poster Comment: Time to cleanse the palate with a catchy little Juice Newton ditty. So what? Late 70s and 80s pop videos were the best.

I had always thought that this song was written by Dave Edmunds - turns out it was written by the pedal steel guitar player in Emmy Lou Harris' band, Hank DeVito. I like both her version and Edmunds'.
I have and like both versions too; been a Dave Edmunds fan since he was a new act. Rockpile, baby; about as good as short pop tunes ever got.
Check this one out (from 2000)
Were you guys into Linda Ronstadt at all? This wasn't nearly my favorite Ronstadt ditty, but this particular LIVE performance is just spectacular. A Top 3 IMHO. Rounding out the Top 3 spectacular live performances: Lou Reed's 'Sweet Jane' (R&R Animal), featuring Dick Wagner & Steve Hunter. Dire Straits, 'Sultan of Swing', Alchemy. (Hank, you wound up buying that CD/DVD, right?) What a band this was! Watch/listen to how sync and tight these guys are, the joy and passion as Linda exhorts them on. No AM station would ever allow the rides and this song to go on 6 minutes. They tore it up. Andrew Gold (had his own band, never knew how good on guitar his was, besides proficiency on piano), Kenny Edwards (under-rated vocalist, bassist), Waddy Wachtel (great long-time guitar sessions guy, still plays for Keith Richards), Dan Dugmore (pedal steel), Brock Walsh (keyboards) and Mike Botts ( drummer from Bread.)
Somewhat, she had a great voice. I was working in radio and got a copy of this picture disc when it came out; still have it somewhere in with the vinyls in storage: That vid was pretty good; I kept hoping gravity would win out against fabric technology, but no such luck.
When and where? I did college radio for 4 years and worked at a few small market radio stations in upper Michigan and the midwest from around 1977 to 1986 before getting a TV gig. Not on air - I'm the classic example of someone who has a face for radio. Mostly doing voice-overs, production, weather and directing morning news.
...Mostly doing voice-overs, production, weather and directing morning news. Very cool. All facets of production? Any of your work preserved on YT? Btw -- did you actually understand weather fronts and all that stuff weathermen through at us? Or just read the teleprompter?
ggeeeeshh wrong through hah
