The Atlantic Records YouTube channel only has two of her videos "Lost In Your Eyes" & "Foolish Beat". Though both #1 hits respectively. Most of the videos from the channel appear to be from the last 15 years from the videos on their setlist.

I think Atlantic really jumped the shark when Ahmet Ertugen went into retirement.

"We Could Be Together"

while it lasts...

I guess people need to realize since she no longer with them for many years now she kind of a forgotten former artist.

A bit off topic, but I've noticed many hair metal DVD release from the past decade. Especially that their music isn't praised by critics and considered a joke by many. (nothing against hair metal since I enjoy some Motley Crue, Cinderella & Poison myself).


Since slightly obscure or less popular bands like Ratt (underrated) and Twisted Sister have DVD releases,  why not pop singers from the same era? Ironically, both were from Atlantic Records (though released from Rhino).

It's not just Deb since I haven't seen a disc featuring Taylor Dayne nor The Go-Go's (vintage concert & music videos)


While there's video tapes that can be converted to DVDR (for good...self viewing, not evil...bootlegs) , there's always copy-protection (which 2/3 of Deb's early videos are) and tapes that are worn-out.

I'm probably the very few people that still watch music videos on television (though now  only when nothing else is on), which I actually taped many videos from VH1 Classic about two years ago before they started adding those lame "ring tone" pop-up ads and other distractions.

Plus, when you copy something from VHS to DVD the picture and sound quality are no better than the tape was.  If Atlantic was to put out digitally remastered versions of her videos on DVD I would buy them.

"Only In My Dreams" (extended club mix)

Despite the mid 1990's Atlantic "Greatest Hits" release, it's not the version from that album   

"Electric Youth" (Deep House Mix)

There's a few  more mixes and songs on that person's page.

"Foolish Beat"  from "Live From Kentucky" (1988)

The interview from same program. Both from Dblly's YouTube channel.

[Out of the Blue]

The amount of video of Deborah that Deblly has is just staggering.  Most of that was also during the "pre internet as we know it now" era when you more or less just had to get lucky or know about something through word of mouth.

LOL I find the Live from Kentucky thing funny when it looks like it was filmed in Cincinnati.  You see Downtown cincy in the background the Centeral trust building was a dead give away.  I never knew she filmed something here.  That must have been during the EY tour in 1988 but it was hot as hell here that summer.   She must have been burning up in the jeans blazer.

A lot of people don't know it but Robia Lamorte of Buffy and later Prince fame is in the "Shake Your Love" video.

"Over The Wall" (1989)

"Red Hot" (1987)

while they last

Honestly, I think "Red Hot" should've been released as a single in the US. 

[Out of the Blue]

I think either "Red Hot" or "Wake Up to Love" should have been singles instead of "Staying Together."

"Between The Lines", from debut album "Out of the Blue" (1987)

[Out of the Blue]

That's another song that should have been released.  I've often tried to imagine what the video for it would have been like.
