The Buckner-Garcia Band Sings Of Their Love Of “Old School Games”

It’s always a good morning when one can log onto Facebook and see that Jerry Buckner, one half of the talented music duo Buckner and Garcia that gave us the 1982 arcade game inspired album Pac-Man Fever, has announced a new song has been released.

Buckner and Garcia - PacMan Fever

Gary Garcia sadly passed away in 2011 but Jerry Buckner along with Danny Jones, who played drums and provided lead vocals on 2012’s “Wreck-It, Wreck-It Ralph”, have formed the Buckner-Garcia Band and just yesterday released their music video “Old School Games”.

In the video you are going to see many of the popular arcade games of the 80s like Pole Position, Tetris, Space Invaders, Donkey Kong, Zaxxon, and Pac-Man of course to name just a few…plus some vintage video from arcades of the day.
