I listened to Jeffreys in the early '80s. It turns out his biggest hit was "Wild in the Streets." And funny timing, the Circle Jerks came out with a cover of "Wild in the Streets" in 1982, the lead track of the album of the same name.
At the Jeffreys clip above, notice Harvey Keitel in the opening scene (likely an MTV viddy, but I don't recall seeing it). [Added: Is that Joe Piscopo in there as well?]
The original song from Junior Walker & the All Stars is here.
