I feel a bit goofy tooting my own horn like this, but what the heck.... I shot the video for "Cheenaroka" on Alan Vega's solo album "Dugang Prang"
It was directed by detroit filmmaker Dan Rose. It's a pity I can't find a site for him. HIS is a horn to toot. Some of the artists Dan has directed for are blues legend Junior Kimbraugh, Iggy Pop, Lorette Velvette, detroit punk outfit The Gories and rock-a-billy legend Cordell Jackson (Dan looked her up and found that she was selling real estate having retired from the music scene in the early sixties. He financed a 45 and video and got her on The David Letterman show, whereupon the Anheiser Busch company saw her and signed her to a multi-million ad campaign for Budweiser.)
The list of his work is extensive. Dan has never made a penny on any of his videos, and in fact has financed most of them himself.
Keep a lookout for his up-coming film "Wayne County Ramblin"(video relaese only most likely) Dan spent 12 years trying to get this film off the ground and has just completed the rough cut. And the soundtrack is not to be missed!
