“ The original long-play acetate of "Video Killed the radio star" song track included two versions. The short one for radio playing and the long one for the dance floor. Fortunately Jango holds the long-version with a closing score you are able to hear in the end of the original track (it's a sort of spacer music though) ”

“ I still keep in my acetates, the original LP 33 revolutions-per-minute album of The Buggles. I used to play it in order to tape it then carried it within my taperecorder all the time. ”

“ In case you don't know The Buggles' first video clic ( Video killed the radio Star)was one the very first videos ever played on MTV Channel back on early 80's. New generations should know this for real. ”
