How Rewatchable is The Talking Heads' Stop Making Sense?

I only ever had a passing fancy for The Talking Heads, but after finally watching Stop Making Sense over the weekend, I have an entirely newfound respect for their musicianship, showmanship, and their sound for that time period. I can't stop watching/listening to the film. Tina Weymouth... what a hottie. Can't stop watching her moves in "Girlfriend is Better." And that touring keyboardist. Holy shite was he awesome! He was feeling his own little Compton groove throughout the entire concert. 
I'll stop gushing now.

I think Byrne, his ego, and his forays into all musics got to be too much to bear (especially ego), and bands, unless primordially good time based, are always destined to have a date of expiration.
Tina Weymouth was tremendous, for sure, in many ways, not only physical.

I liked 'True Stories' better.

I was a young kid when they first hit and I just didn't get them at all. I really like their stuff now. Like a fine wine that aged into something special.

Very.
That was the band at their apex . . . at least in terms of having a good time. I was never a geeky fan, but I did like them. And Tom Tom Club.

Probably one of my favorite concert docs.
That keyboardist is the famous Bernie Worrell by the way.

Is this the one that starts off with Byrne solo with a boombox>psycho killer?
If so, I love it and used to get so stoned in college and watch this.
I've matured since then, and now do blow and watch it. It's held up for sure

very rewatchable
fun to see so many people having such a good time on stage and in audience, and the playing is impeccable.
