A Rocktopia / Fireworks Magazine album review by Ant Heeks: As an impressionable teenager back in the mid-Eighties, while having an interest in music but not following any particular genre, I remember stumbling on a programme named The Chart Show, which solely featured music videos rather than mimed performances in a studio like Top Of The Pops. Every few weeks the show featured a Rock chart, and I gradually became more and more interested. This was a time when commercial Rock music was reaching its peak, and the video was just as important as the song. I recall seeing for the first time the video for 'Living On A Prayer' with Jon Bon Jovi soaring above his audience on a harness, and thinking it was pretty cool, and suitably impressed when Def Leppard performed 'Pour Some Sugar On Me' in a house while it was being demolished. http://ping.fm/k12be
