Then there's that Tommy Shaw "Girls with Guns" video set to Dirty Pair...but the very first AMV? A mystery. I'd love to know what source material was used for this alleged 1982 AMV.
From what I know, the AMV in 1982 was to the original Gundam series using the song "Mr Roboto"

From the incredibly down-generation of "Girls With Guns" in my collection, I believe that You Know Who (and, no, it isn't really 'Voldemort') is the one who did that one. YNW also did a Time Stranger AMV to E.L.O.'s "Time" and a Various AMV to "Hair" (from the movie "Hair").

The "Mr. Roboto/Gundam" AMV from '82 might be Jim Kaposztas'. He claims to be celebrating his 20th Anniversary this year, and I'm planning on having him moderate the AMV Panel at Otakon 2003. I've got a copy of his reel and it's on there somewhere.
