This music video comes from a time long ago, when Aerosmith still had their edge and weren’t best-known for movie ballads. Director Marty Callner filmed this video in New Orleans because he wanted to capture the feeling of Mardi Gras and he succeeded. Previously dismissed as washed-up, Aerosmith made a huge comeback in the late 80s. This video definitely helped.
As for Marty Callner, he was one of those directors who worked with everyone who was someone. He also went on to direct several stand-up specials, working with the likes of Jerry Seinfeld and Chris Rock.
Enjoy!
