Vinnie Colaiuta Joan Rivers Showcase!!! 1986 1987

Here is 7 minutes of Vinnie Colaiuta doing his thing all over the Michael Sembello composed opening for Fox's "Late Show w/ Joan Rivers." The show started airing in October 1986. Joan Rivers was fired in October 1987 and Vinnie and the band were gone soon after. I put this together using an amazing 4 hour compilation created by Ray Lombardo. Thanks, Ray!
