that video is wild, so many glam dudes took their style cues from Cave Dwellers-era Miles O'Keeffe

Some magnificent comments on that Blue Murder video. Damn.
Hi Fans of Blue Murder "JellyRoll". I'm the girl in the video. yes it's true. I skidded in late to the video shoot in my brand new whilte corvette, dust flying off the dirt road. The production assistant said I couldn't park there so I threw it into reverse and saw a crew member in my rear view window dive into the bushes out of my way. As for John, What a great guitarist, vocalist, song writer and kisser ; ) John if you listening, How about a sequel? xoxo, Meg Register
I can’t believe that after all the years since this song was released, I still remember every word of the song. That’s even after I almost died in a coma because my brain was swelling and the doctors didn’t know why. I have trouble with my short term memory, but I’ve gotten back my long term memory. ❤❤❤

A lot of the comments read as if they were ghostwritten by Sykes…!

Was it a Bon Jovi thing that started all the glam dudes playing acoustic guitars on the back porch in their videos? I'm sure Crue and Poison never used to do that, although feel free to supply evidence to the contrary.

I remember being so excited for Blue Murder. Sykes was the man back then: a wicked NWOBHM shredder with Tygers of Pan Tang, he carried Thin Lizzy's Thunder & Lightning, and he literally saved David Coverdale's career. Then Jelly Roll came out, and we were, WTF JOHN?! What a disappointment. That video died as soon as it came out.

He is horribly abusing that 12-string to be right honest.

Every hard rock band must have their piss-poor Kashmir ripoff number

speaking of Kashmir ripoffs, two recurring videos on Vevo Robert Plant “Heaven Knows”i always kinda dug this song but the video is like an SNL parody of 80’s music videoshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9Omu_QYb4Qand then there’s this utter shite Coverdale Page “Take Me For A Little While the song sucks so bad but the video is full of weird lols: lady who turns into a lizard! AND turns into a candle!and Jimbo is playing some nonsensical looking harp-guitar like a stupid goblin twat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-ooOf_rih0

Five singles were released, all of which charted. The highest-charting singles were "Pride and Joy" and "Shake My Tree", which reached numbers one and three, respectively, on the US Mainstream Rock Tracks Chart.[33] Music videos were produced for "Pride and Joy" and "Take Me for a Little While", both directed by Andy Morahan.[34][35] While "Pride and Joy" reportedly did well on MTV (also being featured on an episode of Beavis and Butt-Head[36]), "Take Me for a Little While" received minimal airplay according to Coverdale, as the video was deemed too gothic by the channel.[37]

i wish beavis & butthead had done this video, it was RIPE for it

anyway those videos kinda stray from the purview of this thread so i’ll bring it back on topic to say Vevo introduced me to a previously overlooked late -period Y&T track i hadn’t heard from 1990https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MA7Bawrpb9Qi’d always considered “Summertime Girls” to be the cutoff (1985) but this one is really good imothen again Mr Veg is a big Y&T fan & he kinda hates this so ymmv lol
