It's a brilliant stage show with most of their best songs (including just about all of Fear Of Music) played with fantastic heart. One of the newspapers gave the DVD away free not too long ago. <br />It's great as an exercise video workout, too.

In the end though, you still have plenty of time to get into their best album - Remain in Light - as it still sounds like an album of tomorrow rather than yesterday.<br /><br />Carole, I was at the Hungarian equivalent of this Union Chapel gig this summer (2009). Here on the Buda side where great gigs almost never happen. I can honestly say, I hit the mosh for Houses in Motion and then proceeded to dance for the rest of the gig as if my life depended on it. What a great night! Something David Byrne still does exceptionally well is play live.sourpushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18064481502321883887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1533372025110910037.post-49659386598241256422009-12-30T10:58:04.626+00:002009-12-30T10:58:04.626+00:00I've tried really really hard to get into Talk...I've tried really really hard to get into Talking Heads, I got 3 of their LPs, but the penny hasn;t dropped - i really love "Nothing But Flowers" - what more can I do>>>!!>???Blimpyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03062521891682719767noreply@blogger.com
