My 80sography: Daniel Kleinman (Music Video Director) (Madonna, Prince, Fleetwood Mac, Rod Stewart, Howard Jones, Stevie Wonder, Simple Minds)

80sography - 80s music interviews

Another day, another dollar, another cracking episode of 80sography (and another lame intro to an episode description..)
Luckily the guest is the brilliantly talented director, Daniel Kleinman, a hugely successful ad maker of the past 30 years, the creator of all James Bond sequences since Goldeneye (bar one) and who made his start in the 80s directing some of the most innovative music videos of the decade.
So many great icons - Madonna! Rod Stewart! Stevie Wonder! Fleetwood Mac! And works with and is later fired by Prince! (without ever actually meeting the purple pop imp)
And audio commentaries to boot. Get on, get in, and enjoy...
