Stop Making Sense - Talking Heads (1984)


"Stop Making Sense is a 1984 American concert film featuring a live performance by American rock band Talking Heads. Directed by Jonathan Demme, it was shot over the course of four nights at Hollywood's Pantages Theater in December 1983, as the group was touring to promote their new album Speaking in Tongues. ... Lead singer David Byrne walks on to a bare stage with a portable cassette tape player and an acoustic guitar. He introduces 'Psycho Killer' by saying he wants to play a tape, but in reality a Roland TR-808 drum machine starts playing from the mixing board. ... With each successive song, Byrne is joined by more members of the band: first by Tina Weymouth for 'Heaven' (with Lynn Mabry providing harmony vocals from backstage), second by Chris Frantz for 'Thank You for Sending Me an Angel', and third by Jerry Harrison for 'Found a Job'. ..."
