The woman in the video was about the same age they were (early 40's) when that video was made. Its interesting they did that, many bands would have women half their age in their vids. Of course in the late 90's they would have Ms. Jolie in their Anybody Seen My Baby vid. |

Hell yeah, Friday Night Videos. I didn't have MTV when those videos came out, so I was stuck in front of the tube every Friday night praying that NBC would give us some Stones. They did. |

The best part is at the end.
With the sleazy mustached Charlie
answering the ringing phones to "Off The Hook"
This should get more play than it does... |

Sadly, I believe that actress (Anita Morris?) died from Cancer. Great video!
I also love the UNDERCOVER album, IMHO, very underrated. |

GC;
Somewhere, I have a nine min version of SWH, which debuted on a NY radio station, was it WNEW? Anyway, it was defintely an outtake, I still to this day find it a howl to hear the dj talk about it. The song just keeps playin. I'll get it off to you when I can find it. And, there's a pc & r version of the video, where the chick is samokin~! |

Nellcote, I'd appreciate that extendo play. I was being facetious about not knowing about the SWH video. I love when newbies come along & are startled at what's been a virtual treasure trive. Normally I'm very civil to the newbies but this freaky one gets the back of my hand, so to speak. |

I'm still in the mid seventies mindset that thought FTC
was the balls back in the day, when everyone else was slagging it.
People came around to it eventually.
I feel the same about SOL.
BTW, decent vid for it also.
But there's a birdman in the wings on it being bad, wonder how long it will take to hear about this... |

is awful sad

nice video though. SWH was a true classic. Undercover vids were fun. Too bad they all got banned. |

she did indeed die of ovarian cancer in 1994, aged 50 (she'd actually been diagnosed 15 years earlier and had been told she had 5 years at the most).
She has another link to the Stones in that she played the part of Danny DeVito's girlfriend in "Ruthless People", just a couple of years after the "She Was Hot" video
Every one of the 3 videos the Stones made for Undercover got banned by one TV channel or another
They wouldnt show "Undercover of the night" in the UK because of the violence (most notably the bit where the guy gets a bag put over his head and then gets shot), "Too Much Blood" because of the gore and bad language and "She Was Hot" was banned from TV in the US - because of the bit where the TV executive's buttons on his fly explode when he sees the girl dancing and also because of product placement (theres a close up of a can of TAB in his hand!) |

loved that film..do you remember the scene where Sam (deVito) is turning on the crocodile tears for his 'murdered' wife when being questioned in his home by the police? And then the phone rings...
(picks up phone)
DeVito : "Hello? You want to speak To Elaine? I'm afraid she cant talk at the minute....why not? She cant talk because my dick is in her mouth! I'll tell her to call you back when she's done .." (click)
and then he turns to the dumbstruck cop beside him, smiles and says ;
"I LOVE wrong numbers...."

Yeah, that video is great. I've got an old copy of Video Rewind on VHS and its on that. I wish they would put out a video collection the way Bowie did a couple of years ago. |

That same More Hot Rocks DVD has a very good quality B-version of the Undercover title track (both versions were directed by Julian Temple) This version is more band-performance oriented...and for those obsessives keeping score, this version is missing one part which can be seen on some of the older versions of the clip - the part which goes "video nonstop" or something like that on the television screen (when the girl in the video tries to turn off or change channels) |

Did she die 94 or 04? Or thought she only croaked it recently. What a fantastic set of norks she had.
Undercover is a great record. Not a ballad in sight.
Jools Holland did one of his docos with the band. He did one with U2 and Sting around same time. I love the story of Charlie belting Mick and Mickey flew across the table and neaerly into the river below. Though, that tale is sometimes mentioned as happening in the 70's.
I still have cassettes from the interview of that time. The Stones would grant 1 Aussie journo a interview. Jagger was honest enough to say they would not tour Oz. Keith was non committal and Ronnie (bless his heart) said "Just leave it to old Ronnie boy".
Yep, only took him 12 years to convince them to return.
Also, i read the story of the bendy guitar. Ronnie gave it to one of the Duran Duran guys. Evidently, he befriended a couple of them. I recall reading in Rolling Stone or something, in a Keith interview, that some of Duran Duran were with the Stones during recording of Undercover. They were stunned the Stones still recorded together. They thought they "telephoned" their parts in, as a major rumour going around said Bill would record his part, mail it in, Ronnie his and so forth, all from home studios or something i suppose. |

It was in 1994, though as far back as when the SWH video was shot she had already been diagnosed with cancer. Do a google search of Anita Morris, some nice photos. |
