Rock video fans: I am using Michael Jackson's video "Black or White" for a popular culture class, and need a little background material on it. Did John Landis direct it? Has anyone seen any interesting articles on it in any magazines or newspapers? I find it very rich with references for use in popular culture contexts, for film courses, or cultural studies. I especially like the reference to Eddie Van Halen in the first part. They show an Eddie Van Halen model guitar advertised in many music magazines, which is played by Mac. Eddie did the guitar solo on Thriller, but I heard Slash did the one on Black or White. Was it a wave or kick? Bert Deivert
