I was getting ready for 7th grade and usually stayed up all night that summer watching Night Tracks. Crazy memories.
i was gong into the 10th grade that year. Used to look forward to the weekends to sit up and watch Night Tracks, Night Flight and MTV.
RageTV I loved Night Flight and Night Tracks! Didn't get MTV until '89.
Awesome memories of growing up in the 80's. I couldn't get enough of MTV & Night Tracks along with "Friday Night Videos" & BET's Video Soul then VH-1 came along. Since they don't exist anymore, I now noticed I grew up during a unique time. I fell sorry for today's generation. And yeah that Lou Reed commercial is so legendary cool , Martha Quinn my favorite VJ & what else can you say about "Back To The Future", CLASSIC!!!
Awesome sneak preview Back to the Future TV spot!
The 80s. A pure, unadulterated blast. My God, what a decade. I came of age then and wouldn't trade my experiences for anything. Only downside? No other era can possibly compare. Probably a good thing. Were those decades that followed so fun, I'd be dead. LOL
LIKEWISE! In my opinion, looking back, we've COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER OR GREATER DECADE/ERA THAN THE 80s! In my opinion, the 80s WERE, and ALWAYS WILL BE, "THE PINNACLE OF CIVILZATION!" In my opinion, Cher said it BEST, "If I could turn back time!"
Ah the memories this brings back. In 1985 I was in 4th grade,& the highlight of my weekends was watching Night tracks on TBS every Saturday night and Friday night videos every Friday night
Wow summer of 85. I was going into my senior year at high school. Seems so long ago and yet I remember it like yesterday.
A sneak preview for "Back to the Future"...... now that's awesome!!
The USA Network music show is Night Flight
For those who REMEMBER VJ Martha Quinn,she also starred in Problem Child 2(getting "LIT UP" by the doorbell).She always was a cutie.Another piece of VJ history:Nina Blackwood playing a hooker in the 1982 movie "Vice Squad".Anybody besides me remember these cameos.Reply back.
Funny how we don’t really appreciate times like these...until they’re gone.😢
THAT being said, To paraphrase Cinderella, "You Don't Know How Lucky You Are To Have SOMETHING or SOMEONE in your life, UNTIL IT'S or HE/SHE/THEY are gone."
I love St Elmo's Fire and this commerical for Honda they played the late great Lou Reed Walk on the Wild Side classic I loved Night Tracks
Van Halen jumped the shark when David Lee Roth left the band
Agree, GREAT analogy !!
Lou Reed in the Honda Scotter commercial!
The Lou Reed Honda commercial is just straight up bizarre.
Martha Quinn.......Big sigh
Love you Martha :)
"Can you upload just The (Night Tracks) videos on Google Plus in full so I can watch and see them?"
Is that Reginald VelJohnson in 7:37?
Night Tracks is at the beginning of this clip and at 3:03
Please post more Night Tracks bumpers and promos if you have them. I am a huge fan of Night Tracks and there is a NT group on Facebook (WTBS Night Tracks)
Martha :)
nope, but that is Billy Preston singing the jingle.
Night Tracks...miss that show. Didn't get Mtv til bout 1987....TBS and Mtv suck nowadays...Wish we could get onboard Doc Brown's Delorean and go back...
Favorite Honda commercial
Lovely
I remember "Night Tracks" on WTBS, "Friday Night Videos" on NBC affiliates, and there was a video program that ran about four hours on Friday and Saturday night the USA Network but the name escapes me no. Heck it's been over 25 years though.
Night Flight
@@davidcullen1718 right. Thanks so much for jogging my old brain cells.
@@ChadQuick270W I loved that show! It was creative, original -- unpredictable! I loved that it wasn't just an hour. I recall the show running from, like, 10 or 11 p.m. till 3 or 4 in the morning. It was a whole pop-culture package that was well written and well narrated. I forget the name of the lady who did the narration, but she had a perfect radio/documentary voice. Night Flight was like the late-night TV version of the internet -- 10 or 15 years ahead of its time! Apparently, there's a new shorter version of it that airs on the cable network IFC, on Friday nights. It might be worth checking out.
thanks a lot!
I'm not sure who that guy is, but I know it's not Reginald VelJohnson.
Ironic that TBS's parent company owns the goodies
More Martha Quinn.. less Kenny Loggins!!
"St Elmo's Fire." About a bunch of pretentious, annoying people. I still think of it kindof fondly though because it's the 80s. But it's certainly no "Breakfast Club."
St. Elmo's Fire is such a terrible movie. So cringeworthy even then, now multiply by a factor of 10.
