The Cars: Heartbeat City
Original Broadcast Date: March 1, 1984
Boston's New Wave breakout sensation The Cars rode on the crest of the music video wave, crafting some of the most seminal pieces of rock-vid during the dawn of the era. This music video "album," inspired by the band's 1984 blockbuster album, Heartbeat City, contains the videos for such Top Ten hits as "You Might Think" and "Drive," as well as the Top Twenty hits "Hello Again" and "Magic," plus the title track.
Upping the ante on this sight and sound phantasmagoria is the behind-the-camera talent, including Jeff Stein, Tim Pope, Timothy Hutton (yes, that Timothy Hutton) and Andy Warhol (yes, that Andy Warhol, with his last directorial work).
