Before MTV and Friday Night Videos? (Early Eighties)
They were pretty shitty though.
Guess they were good for their time.
And yeah Donald Fagen benefitted hugely from HD not being a thing when he was at his peak.
Yes, before then. Videos were made for songs as long ago as Imagine for example, and shown on music programmes.
Saying that unphotogenic 70s stars benefited from lack of HD is just a shallow way of applying values that only came about later on in the MTV era of makeup artists.
Lots of unglamorous bands appeared live on TV music programmes in the 70s and it helped rather than hindered their popularity and that had nothing to do with lack of HD because the emphasis back then was more about the music.
For a second I thought you were referring to Steely Dan and the smoke was coming.

did a plumbing job for this brilliant lady that had been a caregiver to my 100-year-old grandma who just recently passed. pulled the toilet, and cabled the drain free of blockage from that point of entry… then anchored a new floor flange to the concrete floor ( house built on a slab) and reset the toilet, new wax, johnny bolts, shims and caulk
wasn’t gonna ask for anything, but she gave me fiddy cashe
You are the caregiver. You’ve always been the caretaker.
