Ugly American Werewolf in London: Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms

While Dire Straits were a solid band that had radio hits since their first album was released in 1978, there was nothing to portend the outrageous fortune they would find in 1985 with Brothers in Arms. Their previous album, Love Over Gold, failed to go platinum in the US or produce any big radio hits. Twisting By The Pool from their 1983 EP was catchy but also kitschy and made some wonder if they were trying to parody the oldies instead of creating an homage. While the live album Alchemy was fantastic, it was not a huge seller. Lead singer, lead guitarist and songwriter Mark Knopfler had success in the studio with Steely Dan and Bob Dylan, produced some great movie soundtracks and wrote songs for others like Private Dancer for Tina Turner. But he hadn't made a Dire Straits album that captured the public's imagination. Until they made Brothers In Arms in 1985.... Mark brought in a young keyboard player named Guy Fletcher to give his songs more texture and eventually brought in legendary session drummer Omar Hakim to lay down all the drum parts. The result was an album that hit #1 around the world selling more than 4.5 million in the UK, 9 million in the US and 30 million around the world. The single Money For Nothing topped the charts around the world and featured Sting singing the famous line I Want My MTV. Of course at the time MTV played videos by artists who wrote music and played instruments and between Sting's catchphrase and the cutting edge (at the time) computer animation, it went into heavy rotation and would be heralded as one of the greatest videos for years. But the sound was so crisp on this album it was used to sell CD players in stores and was the first record to sell more on CD than on LP, thanks in large part to recording on digital tape and Knopfler's never ending search for quality sound. Songs like Your Latest Trick and Why Worry may be mellow but you can hear every note. Walk Of Life was fun, upbeat track that featured 2 different videos for the US and UK markets. And while the second side of the album might not have featured the big hits as the first side, Knopfler's lyrics take on more serious notions like war, life and death. the final and title track brought up visions of pain from the Falklands War that had affected so many in the UK and Argentina and is seen as a respectful tribute to those who fought (and often played at military funerals0. You can't tell the story of MTV, the 1980s or Dire Straits without this album and we dug in for an in-depth conversation about its impact at the time and how it sound today.

Mick Jagger, Madonna, and David Bowie were amongst the megastars who participated in the ‘I Want My MTV!' campaign which debuted on 1st March, 1982; credited for getting music television to a sustainable number of cable providers and thereby kickstarting a whole genre: the music video.  Ad guru George Lois had come up with the slogan, inspired by an earlier cereal commercial he'd worked on. The promotion hit such a nerve with Generation X that it even made it into a hit single, when Dire Straits and Sting sang ‘I Want My MTV' in ‘Money For Nothing'.  In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain why the music and cable industry both needed persuading of the merits of taking the new channel; consider why adopting the segregated playlists approach of American popular radio was a mis-step for the originators of the network; and reveal why so many British artists played a role in the early days of the playlist… Further Reading: ‘How MTV changed pop music and TV forever - but it all began in cramped room above deli' (Mirror, 2021): https://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/how-mtv-changed-pop-music-24659108 ‘George Lois Dead: Icon of Ads & Magazines Popularized ‘I Want My MTV'' (The Hollywood Reporter, 2022): https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/lifestyle/lifestyle-news/george-lois-dead-icon-ads-magazine-i-want-my-mtv-1235266407/#! ‘I Want My MTV' (MTV, 1982): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGZSWdh17l0 We'll be back on Monday - unless you join

The story went from a Monkey to a Mogul to the birth of a new Music Medium. Welcome to MTV. Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast, teaching business owners the not-so-secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom-and-pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector and storyteller. I'm Stephen's sidekick and business partner, Dave Young. Before we get into today's episode, a word from our sponsor, which is, well, it's us, but we're highlighting ads we've written and produced for our clients, so here's one of those. [Best Home Services Ad] Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast. Dave Young here, Stephen Semple alongside. You told me just 10 seconds ago we're going to be talking about MTV, and that's the first thing that popped into my head. I'm not bad at that, am I? Stephen Semple: No, that's not bad at all. It's amazing how MTV has changed, but, anybody from our generation, that's MTV. Dave Young: We remember when they played music. Stephen Semple: We remember when they played music. Dave Young: They gave awards for music and music videos. Stephen Semple: Yeah. They've really changed, but we're going to go back to the fun early days when they were actually a music channel. That campaign was amazing. We're going to pause for a minute and we're going to slot in a whole pile of those I Want My MTV ads at a certain point here because the list of musicians that they had do that is just incredible, just incredible. Dave Young: You may not have as deep awareness of this as I do. Do you know the very first song that they played when they launched MTV? Stephen Semple: I do, and you can share it right now. Dave Young: Well, because I was in the radio business, right? The first song was The Buggles' Video Killed the Radio Star. Stephen Semple: Killed the Radio Star, yeah, exactly, which was so funny. Dave Young: Everybody in the radio business is like, "I like MTV, but this is ominous." Stephen Semple: Yeah, you got to really have a sense of humor to do that. Dave Young: We're in trouble now. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Exactly. Dave Young: Then they quit playing music and radio was fine. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Exactly. Radio outlasted MTV in the end. MTV was launched on August 1st, 1981, and it's the flagship property of MTV Entertainment, which is now part of Paramount. Yeah, it's not in the music world really today, but, when it launched, it changed the music world, and that's what we're going to really talk about is the change that happened. The idea, I don't know that you're aware of this, Dave, but the idea for MTV was created by Michael Nesmith, who people from our generation would know as one of the monkeys, so one of the monkeys created the idea for MTV, which I thought was really, really incredible. Dave Young: Really, and he was such a creative, even a filmmaker, right? He did music videos before MTV. He did films. Stephen Semple: He did. Yes, he did. He was a real pioneer in music videos. He wrote this solo tune in 1977 called Rio, and he was asked to create a clip for it. What everyone was expecting was the standard clip that was done at the time, which was a guy standing in front of a microphone singing the song, right? Instead, what he did is he created this clip where there were shots from locations and all these other things that didn't necessarily have anything to do with the song, and this is considered the world's first music video, because this is not what people were expecting. They were expecting this shot of him singing in front of a mic, and they got all this other stuff instead. What ended up happening was this ran, this got aired in Australia, the video, and Rio went number one in Australia with the airing of this. Now, it wasn't called a music video at the time. It was called a video record is what they first called it.

Ein Ende kann ein Anfang sein, auch für unser Filmdoppel. Bevor der letzte Vorhang fällt, möchten sich Ralf und Fabian noch fünf Podcast-Wünsche erfüllen und gehen noch einmal jeden Donnerstag im Dezember auf Sendung. Los geht es mit dem klaren Bekenntnis zum musikalischen Kurzfilm. „I Want My MTV!“ bedeutet für das Doppel, „I Want My Mylène Farmer, My Rammstein, My Ultravox, My Pink Floyd, My Gloria Estefan“ und natürlich „I Want My Pet Shop Boys“! Unverbesserliche Businessmänner, kubanische Hotels, grimmige Adler und eine afrodeutsche Germania beweisen letztendlich: Liebe ist für alle da! Und ein tolles Musikvideo sowieso.

Adam Curry was one of the VJs (video jockeys) of MTV back in the 1980s. In this position, he “interviewed” some of the most popular musicians of the time including Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney. Adam is an early tech adopter and pioneer because he embraced the web and podcasting long before other people. He helped make podcasting “a thing” by collaborating with Dave Winer on podcasting technology, and he created one of the first podcasts, the Daily Source Code. In 2005 Steve Jobs previewed Apple's podcasting efforts by playing the Daily Source Code on stage at D, the most exclusive tech conference. It is a huge deal when Steve used a product like this. Adam also started companies along the way that offered services such as web design, video-sharing, incubation, and podcasting. He currently co-hosts the No Agenda podcast with John Dvorak.

It was August 1, 1981 when MTV launched and changed the course of music history in several ways. Music videos were on the rise and soon became a necessity for artists to earn airplay on the specialized cable channel, which would gain popularity over the next few years thanks to encouraging people to call their cable carrier and tell them: "I Want My MTV." In the coming years, MTV would be a worldwide phenomenon and a real hit-maker, introducing its viewers to multiple modern music genres and offering "Closet Classics."his week on Revenge of the 80s Radio, we play songs from the first 25 videos ever aired on MTV (mostly in order) and a few others from Day 1 as we look back at the days then the cable channel actually played videos.Despite what the channel has become over the last two decades, MTV was for a time cutting edge, interesting, fun to watch and a prime source to hear (view) new music from new as well as established artists.

Los Angeles Times music editor and author Craig Marks joins Tim to talk about the birth of MTV and how it changed culture, music and television. Craig is a co-author of the book, “I Want My MTV: The Uncensored Story of the Music Video Revolution.” https://traffic.libsyn.com/shapingopinion/77_-_MTV.mp3   The date was August first, 1981, otherwise known as 8/1/81. That was the night music television was launched. Fittingly, the first video viewers would see was called Video Killed the Radio Star. It was a two-year old song by the Buggles that said it all. Before Music Television, radio and the record companies controlled the music industry. They decided what you would hear and who you would hear. They decided who the stars would be. After MTV, a lot more people had a say, and the music industry would never be the same. Dwight Garner wrote in the New York Times in 2011 that when it launched, “MTV delivered not just new music, constantly on tap, but also a jumpy new visual aesthetic.” It didn’t take long for MTV to have an impact. But before that could happen, the stars had to convince cable companies to carry the channel. That mission inspired the first iconic images of MTV, when David Bowie, Sting and others starred in TV spots demanding, “I Want My MTV.” Those spots drove demand on the part of young, baby boomers and the first cohort of Generation X. And cable television companies responded. But before you can fully appreciate the impact MTV made on culture, it’s important to know what it was like before music television. Craig Marks tells the whole story from those crazy ‘80s videos and bands, to the impact Michael Jackson and Madonna had on MTV and the impact it had on them. At the same time, MTV would usher in the Reality TV phenomena with the creation of The Real World. Our gratitude to Viacom for its permission to feature the classic "I Want My MTV" promotional spot audio in this episode.  Links I Want My MTV: The Uncensored Story of the Music Video Revolution, by Craig Marks and Rob Tannenbaum, Amazon MTV.com MTV Launches, History.com When the Music was Still on MTV, Vanity Fair About this Episode’s Guest Craig Marks Craig Marks is the Los Angeles Times’ music editor, responsible for coverage of popular music.
