David Byrne on SNL reminded me of how great the Talking Heads were

And what is perhaps one of my all-time favorite live performances
Talking Heads - Life During Wartime LIVE Los Angeles '83
ETA: The whole concert film "Stop Making Sense" is great if you're a fan or not. Just an awesome performance.

If anyone has a free hour, there are worse ways to spend it than watching this 1980 Talking Heads performance in Rome. The set list is killer, the energy is through the roof, Adrian Belew is a guest guitar player...it is just all around a fantastic show with the Heads at the peak of their powers.

adrian belew and jerry harrison are touring this summer

Harrison will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the groundbreaking Talking Heads LP Remain in Light with a tour featuring the Brooklyn-based funk band Turkuaz and former King Crimson/David Bowie guitarist Adrian Belew, who was a key part of the Remain in Light album and tour.

They must really, really all hate each other to have never bothered with a reunion. Although between how David Byrne has done as a solo artist, how Jerry Harrison did as a record producer in the 90s (he discovered Live) and how Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth did with "Genius of Love" I guess they don't need to fool with it.

That performance on Saturday was fun. Would have loved to see them perform as a band back then.

That was great
It’s Talking Heads at work tomorrow

I know it's basically blasphemous to say these days, but I could never get into TH. I've tried numerous times since the 80's, as recently as a few months ago, and they just don't grab me. My dad was a big fan and played the "Stop Making Sense" VHS often when I was a kid, which is usually an automatic favorite due to the sentimental angle, but nah, just not my thing.

Recently added Once in a Lifetime to my bike jams playlist.
Brian Eno (producer, co-writer & synth) adds so many cool little critter tracks it’s just mad, and the restraint to wait until the last chorus for the big guitar panned straight up in the mix is production greatness.

well...chris & tina are married so i'm guessing they are cool with each other. jerry has always spoke well of those two as well.
so there's one member that is being a dick about it.
you can guess who that is

Me as well. I like a lot of music with Adrian Belew, but the talkin heads stuff seemed silly. Different strokes...

Yep. David Byrne thinking he was the Talking Heads is why there is no more Talking Heads.

In the grand scheme of things Byrne is vastly underrated as a "great" one.
Posted on 3/3/20 at 7:28 pm to stout
Thanks, stout, for that '83 video.
I recall seeing the band at Sky Harbor Airport in Phoenix that same year!

I couldn't agree more. Byrne has proven time and time again to be one of the most electric frontmen with limitless talent and ability.

Completely true. One of my fav concert films.
The second half of the compilation The Name of This Band Is Talking Heads was recorded live in 1980-81 with the Belew lineup and all the amazing Remain in Light songs.
