Ellen Foley-Torchlight

Was there ever a video for this song?
I just picked up her "Spirit of St Louis" album on cd (I've had the vinyl issue since 1981) for this fantastic track. At the time of release she was Mick Jones' (Clash) girlfriend, and she had appeared on Sandhinista Now!. Lot's of Jomes/Strummer/Tymon Dog involvement on her album (e.g. "produced by my boyfriend").
If there was, where might I see it?[?]

.. I do Remember an Ellen Foley Tidbit...
She was the "Girl" singer on Meatloaf's Bat Out Of Hell "Paradise By the Dashboard Light".
When he toured It was Carla DeVito ("Cool World", Robby Benson's Wife), on Stage & The Video.

She also played in the 1979 film version of "Hair" which starred Treat Williams. She was the the blonde girl who sang "Black Boys". Don't ask me why I remember that...I just do.
