Reply to comment by Master_Chef_Mayo in Tina Weymouth, Talking Heads/Tom-Tom Club (1983) by So_Do_You_Like_Stuff

The very first thing to know about the talking heads is Stop Making Sense. An epic live album covering a great deal of their material. You’ll notice it’s a movie soundtrack. Yep. Get hold of that movie. Play it where you have a really really good sound system and watch it as a movie, from start to finish. It’s one of the greatest concert movies ever made, like having front row seats at one hell of a concert. But cheaper 💁‍♂️

Honestly one of my favorite movies ever, of any genre. It is so well directed, the set design and choreography are incredible and the feeling of intimacy you get with the band is unparalleled. Just pure joy and music coming through the whole time, it is magic to me.

Thanks! I watched it earlier, the whole concerts on youtube, I loved it, they're a really rhythmic/funky/groove type band, I love the talking/singing vibe he has, it's still a lot to take in first listen but I'm watching it again tomorrow. Oh the energy, amazing energy

The amount of cocaine on that stage could’ve probably euthanized a family of elephants
