Music video I made for the 1979 hit by Jay Ferguson, using the 1923 Buster Keaton silent film, "The Love Nest." It's not the official video, and I claim only the editing.
This was released at the outer edge of a golden era of rock. Full bass, guitar and tight vocals and lyrics. Two years later, this type of music literally disappeared.

Jay was under a lot of pressure to follow up Thunder Island with another big hit on his next record. I think he done it!! Love this song and remember hearing it regularly in the summer of '79. Funny I always imagined the Captain to be a very sexy female🔥🤣🤣

Fun video! You selected some great Buster Keaton footage and it seems like I’m always late listening to a Jay Ferguson song. Wish he would have released more solo albums. Did you make a creative video for Losin’ Control? Too many people have forgotten that song.

Nice job, Dave. Do you mind my asking which release you used for the recording? I'm assuming that it was taken from an LP, so I'd also like to ask you about your TT setup. It's really nice to hear something from my favorite year. Please keep up the great work.

Thank you. I used what I assumed was the single (hit) version of the song. I synced an old silent movie to it and -- voila -- we have a music video.

You could almost use the beginning of this song for the opening to The Office....

@@davewebbtheauthor right on brother. Joe Vitale and Jay and Joe Walsh were all friends. Check out interviews with Vitale. Pretty cool

Hey Dave great job. IMHOP this is a much better song than Thunder Island with all the da,da,da,dee, dee,dee filler. Doesn't get played by Sirius Yacht Rock I guess because of the 'you want some sex' line. Yet Sirius plays Nickleback I Want To Be A Rockstar and bleeps out drug dealer on speed dial so what's the difference? Great work!

Thank you. It's a little piece of my childhood and I thought I'd make a video. Glad you liked it.
