That's so cool! You mean Tony Levin actually had hair at one point?

Any idea how old this clip might be?

Tony & Steve were regular backups to Paul at that point. Check out clips from "One Trick Pony" for more.

and the vid was tagged as 1975

Also Paul was in a movie where he played bass along with 2 members of the Sex Pistols named: "Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains". With the added plus of the always hot Diane Lane.

That's awesome.

I personally have a fondness for the central park simon and garfunkel version. Still had Gadd on drums but bass by Anthony Jackson. Unfortunately the only youtube video of that one is a TERRIBLE dub.
