Go-Go's Wild at the Greek - Original 1984 Airing on Cinemax (including Cool Jerk)

Ойын-сауық

This is how the concert originally aired on Cinemax, including the Cool Jerk performance. I have heard that Cool Jerk was left from disc pressings/VHS due to licensing concerns for that particular song, since it was not written by the Go-Go's. Please note - this has been digitized from a 36 yr old VHS tape, thus the lower quality. Charlotte Caffey, Belinda Carlisle, Gina Schock, Kathy Valentine, and Jane Wiedlin.

    "Head Over Heels" is one of their best songs ever. I'm surprised they would open with that song and not save it towards the middle or end of the concert. Reason being you want to build up to your better songs to keep the anticipation and excitement of the crowd going.

Almost every other live take I've seen the guitars play more of a staccato style. I like this version same with Urgh because it makes them sound a little closer to their punk early beginnings!

    "Head over Heels" is WAY better in the Central Park show. I'm not sure what it is with 80's keyboards, but it always used to sound like Charlotte was playing with an arpeggiator instead of doing that awesome piano groove on her own. It does NOT sound like that in the Central Park show; it sounds all natural.
