A great scene from - "One Trick Pony" 1979

I LOVE THIS FILM! I wish they would release this on DVD!
This scene also explains why the music industry is in a shithole!

You don't have to be a Paul Simon fan to enjoy this movie. There is a great scene on this movie with the B-52's (1979) when they just broke out.
The band in the film and on the album: Steve Gadd, Richard Tee, Tony Levin & Eric Gale. CLASSIC!!
They all had lines and parts in the film, but they were playing themselves.
It's a great film about an artist his battle with the music industry and juggling a relationship. I don't think Purple Rain would have gotten the green lightm if it were not for this film. IMO.

I was about to say the same thing about this being a precursor to "Purple Rain".

Along with Neil Diamond in "The Jazz Singer".
