They called themselves what!?
Yeah, that's right. They're the Buggles and if anything is running through your mind other than "kick ass new wave prog" then, well, you're as perverted as I am. The Buggles!? What were they thinking? That name just conjures up images of bad British prison movies and unpleasant medical procedures. Oh well, their album The Age of Plastic more than made up for their name and is another pick from my top ten albums of the 1980s. The video... not so much.
But they were first though. Actually, I think Laurie Anderson gets credit for doing the first music video, or maybe it's Michael Nesmith -- I can't recall, but the Buggles get all the credit for ushering in the video age because theirs was the first to air on MTV.
In any case, here's Video Killed the Radio Star, which marked the debut of MTV at midnight on August 1, 1981.
Big Science is still one of my favorite albums.
Actually, Socrates made the 1st music video. It's a little known fact.
No, don't make me sing.
I looked desperately for "Pop Musik", by M, which used to play on VH1 from time to time, but alas, no talking about Pop Musik in New York, London, Paris, or Munich for me.
