“Mexican Radio” is a single from Wall of Voodoo’s second album, Call of the West (1982). The release label, I.R.S. Records, was unwilling to invest much in promotion, but the band spent a couple of days in Tijuana to make a video for the song. MTV (Music Television) was still a new cable channel at the time, and the era of the music video was heating up. The video was a hit. Once the song was established on MTV, US radio stations started playing it, too, and it became the band’s highest charting single in the United States. Here's that special video.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyCEexG9xjw
