Our brother Kevin Mitchell passed away recently-he is the blond guy in the Wrangler commercial with the girls pulling off his shirt.Kevin was best known as one of the pioneers who put his windsurfer in the barrel at Waddell Creek in Santa Cruz,CA.late seventies into early eighties. Before that (and after) Kevin was always an old school paddle-in surfer in monster surf and a ripping harmonica player...RIP brother..we'll be there droppin' in on the bombs with you one day.......

Mountain King and Pitfall 2 blew my mind on the 2600. They both had context-sensitive music cues.

Wow! MTV in its infancy, back when it WAS "Music Television"!

I was 7 years old ,when these aired,I remember most of these ,like it was yesterday

Big Red nice!

Blows my mind to see Neil Young doing a wacky promo ad for MTV.

@80sCommercialVault Год назад

This was when he had a contract with Geffen records. Later that year they actually sued him for releasing music that was "not commercial viable" and not sounding enough like himself: faroutmagazine.co.uk/neil-young-geffen-records-lawsuit-commercial/ iloveclassicrock.com/when-neil-young-was-sued-for-not-sounding-like-neil-young/

@80sCommercialVault 15 лет назад

"Harmonize a little longer" was probably just for that ad only. I haven't seen it in other Big Red ads. I was -8 months old when these aired.

@gli7utubeo 15 лет назад

Just great. Just great... Thanks.

@gleeb0278 14 лет назад

I was born just three short months before these aired...and it is SO weird to see music collection infomercials featuring vinyl. Strange to think that this was the norm when I was a baby...makes me feel old.

@skystarless 12 лет назад

They were still offering 8-tracks in 1983? Huh. That Wrangler commercial is hilarious. I can't imagine anybody wearing Wranglers to the beach. I was 8 months old when these aired.

@lycanthrope1980 15 лет назад

It was. Better cartoons, better TV in general, better toys. Being an 80s kid was fun.

Mountain King Can YOU Find Glitch Heaven?

BTW: My mom has that exact ZZ Top keychain. She bought at one of their concerts though not from a commercial promotion.

@MeInTX 13 лет назад

1-800-HOT-ROCK--the Amazon of 1983! If I was going to start a radio station that my mom would listen to, that Greatest Hit Album would be a good place to start. But really--leading off with the "Hill Street Blues" theme? I thought it was a TV themes album at first. Were those windsurfers windsurfing naked? And what was up with that odd blue color of the jeans? I don't think I've ever owned a pair of jeans quite that shade of blue.

1. Outstanding Atari game! From the company that also made Omega Race, with a custom controller. 6. Would love to have something shipped for $1 now. 11. Sure wasn't movie of the century.

@ajpecanic 14 лет назад

Mountain King actually looks like a pretty cool game. I looked it up on Wikipedia and it sounds cool, too. A remake on the DS would be great.

@timothysprengeler4071 3 года назад

0:00--I never owned that game, but I remember playing (and liking) it. Either a friend or a cousin of mine had it, and I played it when visiting them. I recall that it actually had 2 pieces of the "Peer Gynt" music--"In the Hall of the Mountain King" and "Anitra's Dance."

@pika23 15 лет назад

I know people with that ZZ top keychain...I tried that 1800 HOT ROCK number just now and it was a busy signal

@campingramen1841 3 года назад

It half sounded like the The Greatest Hits Album announcer had to yell over the songs for some reason

@pneumaticacutie 15 лет назад

You're right, they do look very clear. Wonder what tape it was recorded on or if the same tapes were compiled. Also, is Music Television another way of saying MTV or another TV music station?

@80sCommercialVault 15 лет назад

It's to help throw off the copyright hounds at Viacom.

@SMAXZO 8 лет назад

Is it just me...or the guy who sang for the Mountain King ad sounds a lot like Jack Black?

@disposableutopia 11 лет назад

Music video artists use RU-vid now... why pay MTV to aire a vid? Thus, no more music on music televison.

@TyphoidBryan 9 лет назад

Crap, it is too late to get that Caddy.

@jamiewillkner8742 5 лет назад

Nobody would make a commercial like Big Red anymore. What the hell happened to Sessions?

@timothysprengeler4071 3 года назад

1:00--One of the many great jingles used by Wrigley's over the years. I don't remember that "Harmonize a little longer" line either, but this is a very music-centric volume--probably because MTV was primarily a music video channel back then.

@usa02 13 лет назад

This is back when MTV played all videos. Today they play nothing but crappy Reality Shows.

@likemyorbs 5 лет назад

Hard to believe that bar soap was ever a thing. I know they still make it, but I don't know anyone who uses it over liquid body wash and soft soap.

@80sCommercialVault 5 лет назад

This is from around 20 years before body wash/shower gel was even a thing.

@timothysprengeler4071 3 года назад

OK, I'll fess up. I have liquid soap in the kitchen, but bar soap is all I use in the bathroom.

@maxywaxyred 15 лет назад

This was when MTV was cool and played MUSIC not stupid shows like the Hills!

@QuantumCarl 15 лет назад

Man! Soap commercials these days are like just watchin' a woman rubbin' it and latherin' up and then rinsing off, then she smiles and a product name comes up. This one just seemed so... one-off. I mean, she was really scrubbin' away. And she got in the shower way heck of fast. Was that their way of using sex to sell a product? :P
