A million memories. I read a lot of sparkling praise about Banshee when I was 13 and this came out. I loved the video and went out and bought it on cassette (remember them!?). Hearing it now I love this even more he has a great voice and it's a fantastic hard rock song. I miss this era. Now I only listen to independent bands and small label bands because ever since the 90s the mainstream has been nothing but shite! We need to shoot down the industry!

Banshee is an early melodic power metal band that was formed in the 1985 in the American Midwest. Although sharing image and sound with the glam/metal scene of the 80's, their music also diverged from the genre, sharing more in common with power metal featuring guitar solo prominence via lead work by guitarist Terry Dunn
This is why I LOVE youtube! In the old days I had to sit around for HOURS waiting for videos like this. And it was usually on Headbangers Ball lol. Love it!

A pretty Damn good band from here in the mid-west, if I do say so myself! That whole Race Against Time Album was good! I can still remember the the old 86 Camaro windows shakin listening to Precious Metal! Great band, good powerful vocals, great guitar and drum work! Good ole band!

One of the coolest videos ever. This was, and is one of my favorite videos of all time. I just love the quality of the video...and the references to the "Wizard of Oz," and of course Dorothy... Its to bad the actress in the video didn't get noticed for her part in this video--she is gorgeous. The only other videos that comes to mind for a similar style is: "Whitesnake: still of the night," "Cinderella: Nobody's fool," "Masi: God promised a paradise," White Wolf: She," "Hurricane:I'm on to you."
Years later, I still remembered that powerful, shrieking beginning to the video. The high pitched voice thing was big in the 80's. Hard to do night-in/night-out at live shows.
shame that this band was short lived and this was the only music video that they released. Criminally underrated band from the late 80's I have the digital version of this album from Itunes but just wish that I had bought this album when it was released on cassette or vinyl

Hell yeah!I wrote for BANZAI!!(music/concert reviews+Jim Kilroy+covering the local music scene)They rocked the warehouse parties downtown & as the most talented local band in the midwest had a heavy impact on me&my social life in KS.Those parties they hosted/played rocked allowing other bands to share their stage(FOXY FOXY!)made the local music scene a major event.GOOD TIMES!

Technically Banshee is still playing. Only one original member, Terry the guitarist. Tommy the vocalist has a laid back job and life now. Bill the bassist passed away. And Kent the drummer is a renown session player and steady musician.

Terry Dunn in still in contact with original bassist Chock Hopkins, who he has recorded with in the last few years.
@l82corvette Yeah man. totally agree about 80's. me myself was born in 84 in Ukraine, and missed all culture that was happening in USA, but later on while in college discovered hair metal, glam rock and basically culture of '80. i love that time. everything starting from music movies cars clothes were with some kind of passing and grace, with soul so to say. Unlike todays time, that sucks!!!
This band is STILL together the guitarist and bass player are working w/ G Call of ASKA. We have live video on our channel. The latest album "MindSlave" is tremendous!!!
Yeah, also one reason why they never get more popular may be coz there were so many heavy metal/hard rock band's in late 80's, it was hard get throught.
Thanks for the response on this video. It drives me nuts that "Banshee," was destroyed by jealousy and envy...perhaps paranoia. "Banshee," was one of the best groups...ah I wish they hadn't left "Metal Blade," records for "Atlantic," records. The executives of the big labels wiped out progressive, and melodic metal. Its not Tommys fault, or the actress who played Dorothy either. In my opinion women aren't property, so if the exec feared she was seeing someone else then he should have let her go.

Despite the players involved, Blue Murder was no more significant than Banshee, Baton Rouge, Junkyard, etc. Kinda like saying "that Motley Crue, Poison, Pretty Boy Floyd wave".
Bring back Hair Bands,Bring Back New Wave,Bring Back Rock n Roll,Bring Back Anything compared to what were having to endure Now !

I miss the days when vocals mattered. Waited up for Headbangers Ball on MTV to watch this video and all the other 80s videos.
these guys are almost like early power metal. if you look up banshee cry in the night someone up loaded some songs off of an album
I love his shrill in the beginning, the feeling of his voice courses through my whole body...
LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They released 3 but they sold them at their shows.
that is my brother singing this song... LOVE you and miss you Tommy....I am so proud of you......
❤✌🏽👽👍The drummer (Kent Burnham)is my favorite drum teacher- he’s an awesome musician & teacher & so good looking-great person too-❤
It’s too bad his band didn’t get out of Kansas into the big time as they deserved -
they were the most talented biggest fish in the small world lake of KCMO local music scene where I met them.
As we became friends my life was forever changed for the better.
Thanks Kent for turning me on to Queensryche Operation Mind Crime it broadened my musical & lyrical horizons & I still consider them one of my favorite bands.
Where is Tommy now & how is he? Still singing?
amazing band!
\m/
AWESOME~~!
How does the bassist get that sound around 1:58? He does that in a couple of other songs too.
🔍 🎧 ❤
I may be from Kansas but I know Dorothy
Hi there Kayla ⚘

Anyone knows where to get this album? I want it so badly!
What the hell are you talking about? Short lived? I'm their drummer!!!! Hahahaha we're on your right now in promotion of our 4th and new studio album Mindslave!
KENT BURNHAM was the drummer for Banshee+best looking/fave drum teacher I ever had.So glad he turned me onto Queensryche Operation Mindcrime CD in JR high&changed my life creating a new music world for me as a mentor/friend. I love this video so hot! today seeing it 1st time I realize they need more "KENT shots"
You guys kick ass; this is some pure Sleazy Rock N Roll.
@bansheetd I liked the song but The Cry in the Night album was genius. The Stranger Rocks.
Heeeeeelllloooo, Dorothy!!
Remind me a lot of Every Mother's Nightmare.
See you in MN tonight.
That singer is too damn hot. Who is he?
Tommy Lee Flood

They were great and the one thing they needed if anything was 2 guitar players instead of 1 I'll audition and be the first in line I'd like to play rythm for this band
@8DamienKing8 they actually have 3
Tour*

I WANT MY HEAVY METAL !!!!!!!!!! /,,/.
I don't know why this band was short lived they deserved more than one album. but this a great song

must've been about 89, riding the the Whitesnake, Skid Row, Blue Murder wave
Despite the players involved, Blue Murder was no more significant than Banshee, Baton Rouge, Junkyard, etc.
Kinda like saying "that Motley Crue, Poison, Pretty Boy Floyd wave".
lol! couldnt have said that better myself!
HELLOWEEN - HALLOWEEN
@l82corvette ouch due that bad?
Tommy Flood has a great voice.But I heard he wasnt as good in concert.
0:53-0:55 lol
@IApologizeforNirvana LOL dayum!!
great fucking voice.
I heard the album recently. Very Maiden-ish, shockingly. This song is really an outlier on it.
It seemed a mix to me. One song reminded me of Motley Crue. Different styles.
