Sold more 'puters than Jonzun & Jonzun

Of all the Jonzun Crew songs from their debut album to have been blessed with a secrete video, I never woulda expected it'd be We Are The Jonzun Crew. This is Tron on 1% of that movie's budget, but with far better music, a slightly more comprehensible storyline, and some added customary crap breakdancing:

Jonzun Crew - We Are The Jonzun Crew
(From Lost In Space album; 1983)


Good to see Michael Jonzun got some use outta that proto-Lord Dark Helmet from Spaceballs costume he'd previously worn when Jonzun Crew performed Pack Jam on some German TV show in 1983:
