zapp & roger videos

I have quite a few Zapp & Roger videos, they are one of my top 5 favorite groups of all time...but I just got to thinking... I've never actually seen an official music video for 'computer love'....was there one? If so, anyone have any info on it? I know there's live performances of it floating around...but was their an actual video?

He funked, like Kenny G wanked on the sax, just to litter the airwaves. Sure, some of the stuff was intricate, but is a lot of dumb heavy metal. Just don't want it to be compared to the funk or soul greats, that actually write songs. This guy wrote sounds, not songs.
All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

Sorry but you're mistaken. Bootsy produced and played on Zapp & Roger albums and Zapp was a kick ass guitarist. Funk? You bet he will go down as one of the greats.

You beat me to it.

2freaky, you obviously only know Roger by his funk hits, and not by songs like "Freedom", "Playing Kinda Ruff (A Touch of Jazz II)", "Computer Love", "Be Alright", etc...but I forgive you this time. Just don't say that crazy shit no more, m'kay? wink
I'm sick and tired of the Prince fans being sick and tired of the Prince fans that are sick and tired!

It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.
