This is absolutely incredible.

A friend shared this, and I am blown away.

I love the album version, but the live video should be the definitive source. Top notch performance.

If you haven't seen Stop Making Sense, make plans. It is considered one of the best music documentaries ever. Byrne choreographed the show with some help and it immediately established him as a genius performer. I only wish I had been old enough to see that tour. I think I was 14.

I've seen it multiple times in a theater or outside and the entire audience goes crazy.

Music Musings is for the dead. Chatterbox is for the living.

I saw that at the Michigan Theater in Ann Arbor about 20 years ago. I wanted to jump out of my seat and start dancing.
