I'm glad I snagged this one

Great post- this was my must haves for RSD 2024- very happy!

This might be the best Stay Hungry they ever played pre-1980

Never been the biggest fan of The big country, but this faster version is really good

Such a fine recording. I’ve always thought the recordings of the band in the early days before they expanded were the best, and this record serves as the best example I know of. My favorite track is still “A Clean Break”, so hearing it here is nothing new since it’s the same one we’ve had all along from TNOTBITH. Still - what a jam.

Minority opinion: this is their best live record. There are a few cuts on The Name of this Band is Talking Heads that are great--the stuff from 1978, when they were truly on fire live--and of course the tracks from this concert that are on TNOTBITH. The second disc of TNOTBITH (whether on LP or CD) presents the first version of the expanded band 1980-1981. Not my cup of tea. I saw them live twice in 1980. Having said that, I saw them again twice in 1982, with the new version of the expanded band that would eventually record Speaking in Tongues and the live album Stop Making Sense. But in 1982, Speaking in Tongues was still a year away, so the band played from the existing catalog and from their solo records, especially David Byrne's The Catherine Wheel. These 1982 concerts were the best since their early days. The show at Forest Hills Tennis Stadium in New York City in August of 1982 was behind description, but John Rockwell of the NY Times did a good job in his review of that show ("Rock: Talking Heads Fans Get a Night to Remember"). Jerry Harrison is quoted as saying it was the best concert they ever gave. The video compilation Talking Heads Chronology has two videos from 1982 concerts. One can wish for a complete release of a 1982 show, especially Forest Hills. Stop Making Sense, in my opinion, is fine but a bit over-processed, if you just listen and don't watch the movie. Then there is the radio-only LP release, Live on Tour, that records a concert in Cleveland late in 1978. Three cuts from that are on TNOTBITH, but the best cuts ("Warning Sign," "Artists Only") and the remainder of the LP are unreleased.

Been anxious to hear this one, thanks for posting! Great sound

Uh Oh, Love Comes to Town is so underrated..both then and now.
