Retro Video Unit (10/14/11)

As I mentioned in an earlier edition of this feature, Saturday Night Live was the gateway to my exposure to alternative music in the 1970s, but Talking Heads were not the first instance. Shortly before I saw their performances, my true musical awakening occurred in the person of Elvis Costello, when he appeared on the show and performed "Radio Radio" from his second album, This Year's Model.

And it seems there is an official music video for this song, which surprised me a bit given when it was released. But it exists regardless, so enjoy...
