Notes: Paul and family flew to Los Angeles in early October to film a promo video with Michael Jackson for their single "Say, Say, Say".
Filmed in the small town of Los Alamos 140 miles north of L.A., the filming took 3 days to complete.
On the final day of filming a news crew from NBC arrived and managed a brief interview with Paul.
Strangely they didn`t air the interview till sometime in December when the single was high on the charts.
Excerpts from this interview were also used in the local Philadelphia (KYW-TV) NBC TV Show "Check it Out" in early January 1984 when the single was still at #1 on the charts.
