Anybody listening in 2023 this music is still the head of his time💯

Nobody ever seems to mention Chris on the drums but he was a huge part of the Talking Heads sound. Always solid as a rock. He wasn't a fancy player but he was all about the groove.

@@seanc6042 He's basically encouraging her because he really knows she's under average, it's a bit cringe really. Also, because she is female she is getting extra encouragement from the SIMPs, that any other guy would NOT get. Of course she hears these guys saying how good she is and starts demanding, and that, ladies and gentlemen, is what's wrong with the world and it makes me want to puke. You can say that a high percentage of Talking Heads fans are these types of SIMP guys

I love this band because they perform with such perfection they sound as good onstage as they do in the studio--even better!

This band played my home town in 1978. I fell in love and they changed my life. Apart from that, Tina is badass.

I was there, I was 21. Stands out as one of the most memorable concerts I was ever at, up there with Thin Lizzie at Dalymount Park!

I was in a band with Chris Franz younger brother a year before this show. I saw these guys when they were nobodies. I loved every note they played. Amazing band.

What the Doors were to the previous decade in America, Talking Heads were to the 70's transition to the 80's for American music.

When they were at their best. In 1977, I dragged a small crew of fellow SUNY-Binghamton freshmen to "The Other Place", a very quaint club in Vestal, NY to see the TH. The band only had one record under their belt at the time. The joint held 50, or so, people from what I remember. We still talk about the show 40+ years later. They came back to campus after the second album was released and played our "Social Room", another rather small venue. Those were the days.

Tina Weymouth, my favorite female Bassist, EVER.

@@rman52 Yes, she even passed up the reunion tour because her therapist said it would trigger her back into addiction. So for her health’s sake and recovery, she passed on the tour. And that includes big money. While I’m sad to not get to see her together again with the rest of the band, she probably did the right thing. Your health is your wealth. Of course, she could have played one Chicago show at least but I guess not. I forgot to mention Paz plays a mean violin. She’s really good on violin. So she is talented. And she revived the Pixies 🧚‍♀️ and gave them a second chapter. I like the music they are putting out lately.

The sound and footage is amazing. Greatly appreciate whoever posted this. Very tight snappy performance.

Wonderful and RARE!

ONE OF THE BEST LIVE PERFORMANCES IVE EVER SEEN AS GOOD AS THE WHO!

This is really beautiful. I saw them in 1977 and they were so much better live than on record it was untrue. It's really good that someone captured that incarnation of the band for posterity. Even better that it's on here. I love the internet....

This is amazing footage☺

They did several shows that week, I was at two of them. They were f**king amazing live, even as a four piece...

Loved to see ppl of NYC back in that days , great rare video, Extra Band TH 🎶❤🙏4 upload

This is the good thing, thanks.

The only working form of time travel back to 1978.

I was at this show, this is a great find thank you!

Once in a lifetime in 78. Four sounds like a big band. Fantastic show.

"ADJUST TRACKING" 😁

Tina is very intense

Can a passing muso tell me what organ Jerry is playing there? Always loved its percussive quality on 'Take Me To The River'

Just another hot August Thursday on Second Avenue

Was Take Me To The River originally written to be this slow? Tina did not seem to want to play it that slow...until about @14:00. Then it got funky.

Tik Tock, The Talking Heads exploded after this.........

To me, they're just an average band with a mediocre, but unique sound. Nothing extraordinary. I'm stunned they had this many fans. Just my opinion which I'm entitled to. The comments below suggest they had a more amazing sound than what I just heard. Perhaps I just don't get it and had to be there.
