MTV was not the first music channel. There were others. Going back as far as the late 1970's. I don't remember the exact details but they were mainly on select cable networks in certain large cities and those that laid out near them. If I recall one cable network that had one of these music television channels was accessible through something called a Q Box or something. I don't remember exactly off hand. Then there was the television show on a cable channel called Pin Wheel that would become Nickelodeon entitled "Pop Clips" which was hosted by one of the Monkees, Michael Nesmith. I have never seen anything recorded from these sources though would love to if anything were saved from them. All of them failed commercially though I am not sure that that happened before MTV began. Again none of you will probably find any information concerning much about all of this because MTV and the music industry do not want you to know anything about it.
