Sterling Magee and Adam Gussow - Swatch watch ad, late 1980s (full quality)

Подробнее о видео

On a chilly winter day in Greenwich Village in 1988 or 1989, not long after they'd appeared in U2's RATTLE AND HUM, Sterling Magee and Adam Gussow performed live on a brownstone stoop for a Swatch watch ad. This was their first "recording," since they'd not yet entered the studio to record the tracks that would end up on HARLEM BLUES (1991), their W. C. Handy nominated debut release on Flying Fish records.

The sound for this ad was recorded live, not dubbed; both men were wired with lavalier mics. It was cold!
