MTV: The Fallout
- Share via
In his retrospective “Traveling Along the MTV Time Line,” Chris Willman implies that Joe Jackson needed to help his record sales and “gave in” by making his first video after a nine-year holdout.
Actually, it’s been only two years since his last video. From his 1989 “Blaze of Glory” album, Jackson released “Nineteen Forever,” a parody of aging rock stars who don’t know when to quit.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t in heavy rotation (stepping on too many toes, perhaps?) and was missed, obviously, by Willman.
