Go do a Google search for this video. Nothing. Surprising huh? Now do a message board search (or just check the one I did on Be-mag) even more surprising! Now you see why this needs to be addressed. The video itself was WAY ahead of its time. Salomons… check, tight pants… check, fast slides…check, innovation… check. To put things in perspective for you, I bought this video along with a Pawn Raphael Sandoz shirt whilst Richard Taylor was learning misty flips in Newport foam pit.
Remember Best of VG? It probably guess about 3% of VG8 made it into the collective. Add this to the (lack of) Google and message board knowledge of the episode and you wonder of Videogroove 8, Ocho took a running jump towards the edge of the world and actually made it?
Did I mention our boy Mandrews has a profile? Not too sure what the haircut clips were about but an awesome section all the same. DAP, groove.inc, Just Press Play – whoever holds the rights to Videogroove, enlighten the younger generations who really have NO IDEA what these video magazines meant to us. Betamax, VHS, maybe even a DVD. Heck, just put the opening section on youtube and I’ll be happy.
