Auto accidents, Car accidents, Truck accidents, Motorcycle accidents are all happening around us. We try to drive our vehicles as carefully as possible but it is always the other drivers' that we have to worry about - right?
How else can we cope with the potential of an accident. Being aware of everything around you when you drive and not be distracted by cell phones, dvd players, gps systems etc. Of, course its easy for me to say all of this, but you know that what I'm writing is true.
Get rid of the distraction and the concentratoin is more on driving, and then being able to deal more speedily with the other driver's bad driving.
Voulez Vous Danser - Ricchi e Poveri - maybe not the most intellectual video ever - but great fun to make. Look out for a guest appearance by Steve Fairnie (Charlie Chaplin) and the amazing dancing dog near the end - oh, and GAZEBO was the translator on the day - they spoke no English and I spoke no Italian... Ricchi e Poveri - nice memories...
Eddie Huntington - USSR - Eddie Huntington - From the same guys who brought you Gazebo, Den Harrow and Tom Hooker (who co-wrote this song) - Baby Records - Eddie Huntington was a really English nice guy who had several hits in Italy - where are you now Eddy? Mail me... Eddie Huntington
MYSTIC - Ritmo de la Noche - ULTRA RARE - only screened ONCE on tv before it was pulled because of a story about the "singer" in the UK Sunday Scandal Sheets - er - Newspapers - the "singer" was not the singer but a beauty found by Simon dancing in a night club to front the record... she was replaced...
Tom Hooker - LOOKING FOR LOVE - Tom Hooker - the voice of many Italian hits of the 80s - This was a fun video to shoot - firstly because it had long (ish) takes - secondly because we had a (before she was famous) Sinitta and Floyd from Hot Gossip - and because it was shot the day before Do The Dance by Trancedance - on the same set - have a look - Tom Hooker - LOOKING FOR LOVE - Tom Hooker
Forrest - Rock The Boat - Forrest - Featuring (a before she was famous) Sinitta... commissioned on Friday evening, shot in 3 hours on Sunday morning, edited Sunday afternoon and delivered to the Top of the Pops studio by 09.30 monday morning... those were the days... Made #4 in the UK charts in 1983. We also made Feel The Need for Forrest a few eeks later...
Andrea - I'm a lover - Andrea - The original video for this wonderful bit of nonsense from Andrea - Baby records (home of Gazebo, etc) were fabulous! This vid features Jimmy Cameron - great choreographer whom we worked with on many other vids - where are you now Jimmy?
Shakatak - STRANGER - Shakatak - Nigel Wright and the boys and girls shot on a pretty horrible rainy day just before a Shakatak gig in Brighton and on Brighton Pier - the best thing about the day was the prawns at lunch...
Den Harrow - Charleston - Den Harrow - The original - and our third - video for Den Harrow (Baby Records) - usual cast of thousands - look out for Barbie Wilde (Blue Hair) and the two dancers from Hot Gossip who appeared with Den live on tv... Crazy story, as usual... the dresses (all original 1920s - hired at great cost) were ruined in the swimming pool scene...
One of the most underrated British artistes - we shot Judy live in London - well, Croydon - Fairfield Halls - on her 1984 'Cat Is Out Tour'. Tyhe whole fabulous concert is available via tzuke.com - and, no, I don't get any royalties... Anyway, an example of my live directing for you and anyone who might want to hire me drop me a line...
Gary Numan - HEART - Gary Numan ORIGINAL VERSION for this brilliant song - I genuinely love it - Shot in a cold, black studio in Pinewood Studios with just a mirror, a chrome dustbin and a piece of wrinkly roofing - the girl is Christine Peak - where are you now, Christine? Bless Gary for letting me do such a simple video... This is the original edit - thye director's cut (as they say)...
Farenheit 104 - Highway to Freedom - Brilliant anthem from baby records - featuring Tom Hooker, Maurizio Vandelli, Dario Farina - shot in a chalk quarry in Kent (where they shoot moon scenes for Dr Who) with a cast of thousands - also look out for early appearance by Eddie Huntington and Debbie Jones (who was in Future Brain)
Stefano Pulga - Alone Again - A doom-laden industrial intro to a powerful song by Stefano from Baby records. Shot in HMV Oxford Street on a Sunday (in the days before they opened on Sunday) Look out for Sinitta and Many Perrimint.
