[:D]I happened upon this site dedicated to Night Tracks and makes mention to another early video show called Night Flight. Wow... You really have to check out this site. The site owner really seems to share the same love for the eighties many of us have and breaks down the history of video for you.
Remember Madness - Ourhouse... It premiered June 6, 1983... Check out every link 'cause there's a little treasure under each one...

Night Flight and Radio 1999 were both on USA, weren't they. Great stuff. Wish TV could be like that now. We have 500+ stations now full of crap.
