Music Video of the Day: Somewhere Down The Crazy River by Robbie Robertson (1988, directed by Martin Scorsese)


Rest in Peace, Robbie Robertson.

This video was directed by Martin Scorsese, who was frequently described as being one of Robertson’s best friends.  (Robertson is also credited as having been the music supervisor for many of Scorsese’s films.)  This was Scorsese’s second music video to direct, following Michael Jackson’s Bad.

Appearing with Robertson in the video is Maria McKee, the singer who may best known for “If Love Is A Red Dress (Hang Me In Rags),” which appeared on the Pulp Fiction soundtrack.
