‘I would put him in the category of James Brown, the Honeydrippers and Chic’

November 20, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

NYPost:

[Billy Squire] became the only rock star in history to have his entire career killed by a single video.

In their 2012 oral history, “I Want My MTV,” authors Rob Tannenbaum and Craig Marks gave an entire chapter to it. (…)

Within days, he said, “I was playing to half-houses. I went from 15,000 and 20,000 people a night to 10,000 people. Everything I’d worked for my whole life was crumbling, and I couldn’t stop it. How can a four-minute video do that?”
