Adrian Belew was extremely important for the band Talkin’ Heads - no surprise ! I’ve been happy to hear him on the guitar! Great ! Jon Fisher
In 1980 Italy just opened up the doors to international live shows after the "anni dì piombo" (terrorism years in the seventies). You can feel the hunger for music and the excitement in the crowd...
your terrorism was red, it means russian. russia is a terrorist
this Tina the bass player One of the most inventive bass players to play rock of any kind . Certainly the piston behind the beat in this band .. not to devalue the drummer The rhythm section of this band is unique in its simplicity and drive.You can dance to it sitting down
I don't think she played anything, to be frank... the black guy plays every goddamn note. Look at her hands occasionally, a second too late. Not to devalue anyone's input, but credit goes where credit is due.
Busta Jones.
@@whisk941 So the woman considered the second best (woman) bass player after Carol Kaye according to the magazine Rolling Stone is not playing. I have large respect for Busta Jones, but he was in only the last years, not from the beginning. My view to have two bass players was to enhance the lower parts in the song.
I was 17, just landed in Rome on my way to my uncle's house in Greece, there was handbills posted everywhere advertising this show, i just had no freaking way of putting it together to get to this show. So awesome to discover this video exists.
Ms. Weymouth NEVER disappoints
@mi channnal Yeah and at no point was she just eye candy. She knew how to throttle that bass!!!
This was the best Talking Heads Live Band there will ever be this show is what makes me want to play and listen to music with or without the use of drugs and smartphones.
Ryan B take the drugs
the glances Tina gives Adrian, beautiful
I had forgotten (or perhaps had never known) how important Adrian Belew was to the band.
or how about how he was important to so many bands
@@dennisdalesandro6105 Yep, like King Crimson, Laurie Anderson, The Bears, among others.
Unique electric guitar style ..
Left his mark on Remain In Light
This is on a different planet from the music of today. Come to think of it they were on their own planet then, but somehow it seemed to fit in. What an amazing show. I remember going to see Stop Making Sense on the big screen when it came out and it was like a happening in our little NH city. The people in this audience must have been freaking out.
I had no idea how cool these guys were, I mean I knew in the 80.s from their hits but I had no clue how very talented they were and they were a jam band,....I love it!!!!
My favorite band in my 20's, in the early 80's, had the pleasure of seeing them twice. Really have to see some live footage.
They started out as a four piece band, at the beginning of their success. They evolved into this much larger and musically diverse group. Rock solid musicianship in this formation. I'm a big Adrian Belew fan, so I love this incarnation of the band. This must have been a blast to catch one of the shows on this tour.
@@countdebleauchamp ❤
@@vcp93 agree
Wow What a classic. So nice to see Adrian Belew!
Tina was smokin hot!
She looks a bit like a Junior Leaguer who woke up & found herself stuck on a stage with a bunch of art school preppies who made friends with the funk musicians earlier in the week and decided to get together & jam for their friends... a whole lot of friends. With a weird skinny white guy from the midwest of the USA who makes weird fat sounds with his guitar.
Ya, but poor black guy bass player. I see and hear his notes, but she gets more camera time. Why 2 basses anyway? Too expensive!!
He's probably the real backbone of the band, playing the demanding parts.
@@whisk941 I'm sure you're correct. I LOVE it when musicians play BIG like this for fun. Too bad it gets expensive.
Just take a gander...at Tina Weymouth. The most beautiful bass lines of all time. The lady and her wicked infectious bass lines. ☀️
There were two bass players in this lineup. Busta Jones is also playing the bass.
@@sex6cult9revolution Tina wrote the basslines for the songs, thats what he means.
All the more amazing that she didn't even know how to play bass when the band first started. But, damn, she got top-notch quickly! Some people are naturals, I guess.
I couldn't just post:
Tina! Tina! Tina!
...So I just liked someone else's!
@@sex6cult9revolution yeah but busta jones is not a pretty lady, so why bother commenting about him
the best band with the clever singer ever for sure!!!
In 1980, I was 17 and already a fan via "Fear of Music", but I can only imagine how it would have blown my mind and influenced my musical direction if I'd been at a show like this that early on...
Adrean Belew is one of the most joyous experimental guitarists on the planet. What a great addition to an already fantastic band!
You're right. It's a very unique style, it's weird but it works. I like it.
dind ding ding ding ding ding!!!! you are 100% correct
He would've been pretty cool in the Look People.
Man this just crackles. Top to bottom, just searing raw fire. The whole arena is cooking...to have been there, wow!!!
This is a gem, I just discovered today. And the guitar work, no wonder, it sings! Better late than never.
If you like Adrian Belew's guitar playing it is possible you'd enjoy something from King Crimson's ouevre.
@@antipanglossian It's all so flawless ear psycho candy, Will check out King C...
I can hear and pick out every note Adrian is turning into magic!
The early years of the Heads were exciting. They were raw and not particularly accomplished musicians but they brought an energy that was infectious. You could not sit still when you saw them perform. Their musicianship improved over time and they left a lasting impression on popular music rarely equaled. So wonderful to have access to this early show.
Man!!! ...That was really something!!! ...Full spectrum, driving ear candy!!! ...Why didn't I hear that from them, back then??? ...I was a fan of theirs..... I had no idea they were into that type of sound!!!! ...Far out, man!!! ... Blast me into orbit!!!!
This is Stop Making Sense raw version! Love Head's hits from the 80s, but this jamming sound is just otherworldly.
Recognize the interplay between Belew and tina. Absolutely mind blowing.
Awesome group at their best. Fear of Music is probably in my top ten records of my lifetime.
Best line up for this band. This should have more views.
Remain in light was one of that era's best albums!
Adrian Belew just comes through and enhances the shit out of bands live shows
Just like he overwhelms the audience during David Bowie concerts. Great Adrian!
Adrian's Heads?...
@@SPLENDIDZEN Who knows?
@@paolacelletti2056 And Laurie Anderson's concert film, "Home of the Brave".
@@bonehead1170 This one?
czcams.com/video/mua8Pr6uRso/video.html
Wow what energy!! Feel like I'm right there at this gig!!!! Wish I had been !!!!...
You miss out my friend.
I saw Talking Heads with this same lineup on October 20th 1980 at the Hollywood Palladium, in California. The English Beat also played that night. This was the best lineup of the band with Adrian Belew on guitar. The set list was similar to this but much longer with 14 songs ending with a the Great Curve. Too bad there is not more video of this band from this time period. This was their peak. The set list on this video is incomplete and should include the Great Curve starting at around 57 minutes. "The world moves on a woman's hips".
This band was GREAT. Perfectly captured here.
Afrobeat and NYnewave united in an amazing blend of sounds..
Here the definitive version of Crossayed and Painless
The studio version from Remain in Light has almost the same energy, but this version is fantastic.
visti a bologna 2 giorni prima;il più incredibile concerto della mia vita
This was an amazing concert and the band was really into the music. I saw the Talking Heads in the same year in Toronto, Canada and they played most of this set with Andrian Belew. David Byrne made a comment during the show saying, we not like we used to be. It was full of energy. What great memories.
You know you're a fan when you have the lyrics to I Zimbra memorized.
I don't, but that sounds pretty cool--
I saw a lot of bands. In 70s. It. Is a shame I never saw the talking heads brother 13
So so much going on stage utterly unbelievable entrancing lovely to say the least what a band!!! Saw them In 82 Wembley arena I think pre stop making sense check out the BBC broadcast Wow !!!!¡!
I was there!!! 14 y.o. and run off from home cause my parents didn't want me to go there.
Wow lucky you!
Show me on this doll here where they touched you. 🤸
@@RationalMorality 🤣🤣🤣
Nice!
Man, you are one lucky s.o.b! This was just one of the best performances from a live band ever!
This incarnation of the band was its zenith.
Best line-up? Backups for everything
Absolutely unattainable
Unbelievable. What a convergence of raw talent. Transcends time.
Shit, I forgot what a monster band the Talking Heads were. Really love seeing Adrian stealing the lime light. Would love to find a quality live recording of this tour. Just a smokin' group. 🤟
Impressive live performance with lots of toe tapping soul.
Take me to the river 🦆🦆🐟🐟
⛵⛵⛵
This is so fantastic! Real live music on stage with everything they got! The 80 !!
My Favorite : 57:12 !! Wow!
authentic VIBES from an authentic time - priceless!
The performance of "cities" is just incredible 🏅
What an amazing show!! Profoundly stellar 💫
The Heads On fire here. And Adrian Belew it up!
I was just less than 14 and my home was 300 miles from Rome.. that's why I loose it.
Next time I'll run away from home..
Talking Heads at Hammersmith Palais, London, Decmeber 1980. Still the best gig I've ever been to 40 years later.
Yes I agree.
We were there at the Odeon in the sixth row centre.
It was Fantastic!
They were a super hot band.
David Byrne was mesmerising and Adrian Belew jaw dropping.
The next day I bought a series 1 Walkman and Remain in Light on cassette and thrashed it all the way to Amsterdam...
It will always be in my Top 3 of live gigs.
Oh they played the Palais as well?
40 years ago this week.
Today I saw David Byrne’s American Utopia.
What a long journey...
@@jeremypierce2030 Definitely the Palais as I was watching them on a big dance floor. Support act was some band called U2,
@@jeffblack5024 Cool. Yes we saw them December 2 at the Hammersmith Odeon ( the night after the Palais) also with U2 as support. That was such a great year for gigs for a young Aussie in Europe...Led Zeppelin, Bob Marley, Van Morrison, Pink Floyd, Santana, Paul Simon, B52s, Joe Jackson, Rockpile, Robert Palmer , Talking Heads etc. It was a feast of fine music..
Man, I was just thinking King Crimson. Right on! This has some excellent sound and visuals for a 1980 recording.
I didn't know Mr. Bellew was engaged here. W00T
My new favorite thing in the world. Good medicine
Every time I see a live talking heads film I haven't seen "before they got old and couldn't cut it" I think "best concert ever". I saw them live. Well David. He couldn't cut it.
Writing sucks. It has all kinds of problems. But you can hit it out of the park in your 60s writing. I stole that from Bukowski. Why even try once you read Bukowski? What else is there to do? Stole that too, I will cut you.
...so unhappy I lost the eighties...so happy for YOU TUBE. This sh*t is awwwwwwwesome!
Ce que j'ai fait ce soir-là, ce qu'elle a dit ce soir-là, réalisant mon espoir, je me lance vers la gloire.... yes
Me 2 weeks later, took the advise of a tube friend, suggesting I check out Adrian Belew with King Crimson. Live in Tokyo. Fantastic!
Need anyone say more.
Take a look at these hands...
There's water at the bottom of the ocean.
and tina was marginalized despite being an all time great bassist and inspiring woman!

Tina is sooo beautiful!!!!
Any band with Bernie Worrell, Adrian Belew, Busta Jones and Chris Frantz in the lineup is alright by me.
you could have stopped at bernie or singe member and had the samre impact
love belew's performance
@@brianerickson7463 A strong rhythm section is important in this band. And though the basslines are Tina's, Busta "Cherry" Jones provides a strong steady bottom.
WOW!!! Just---amazing stuff! What a find!
@@josephhutchison1983 You bet, not just the amazing lyrical intelligence of the songs, but it's performance too the whole band are cranking. This is when music transcends and elevates to another level. Just by the by Byrne's rhythm guitar playing should never be overlooked. He's got an amazing right hand that just enhances the groove.
One of the wildest shows ever filmed. So heavy. 🤘
Cool that Adrian toured with them !
This was the time to see them
Just simply up there with the greats. Floyd.. Crimson... Heads everyone else... Get in line.

Nice contrast between the way Adrian Belew plays guitar, and Tina Weymouth plays bass. One looks connected to the instrument, the other looks like a tool user. I like Tina Weymouth's playing w/ Tom Tom Club & THeads, but she reminds me a bit of Ira Kaplan in her playing. Adrian Belew is more like Hendrix, just as if the guitar was always part of his body from birth.
Jerry Harrison seems happy to play keyboards and let Adrian Belew wail away for lead guitar. And Chris Frantz is smiley man on the drum kit!
What a fun band there shows look awesome
think i saw donald behind a dude
omfg a full on UFO...
i love the vocals on "drugs"... and of course i love the whole thing ...on drugs 😆
Super ,bylo mne tenkrát 20 let.
wish i had been there, great band ! and makes you realize how good Tina is
Holy Cow! What a show!
My favourite band. I envy anyone who had the opportunity to see them live. The closest I have come was seeing David Byrne live. It was a great showing which mixed solo and Talking Heads songs. I also got to meet Tina Weymouth (looking very cute here) and Chris Frantz when they made an in store appearance and got a couple TH albums signed by both. They were appearing a couple days later at a nearby club (where David performed years earlier) as the Tom Tom Club. I never really got into them apart from Genius of Love.
Impresionante!!!, No había visto este recital!!!...
Grande talking heads, con David byrne en voz ,desde sntgo Chile
This is amazing. They played at ucla a year before that. I didn't go. Big regret.
They played October 20th 1980 at the Hollywood Palladium in a double bill with the English Beat. That is the one you did not want to miss. No seats open dance floor and around 3000 people. Crazy good show.
Belew made an already great, unique band that much better. There is no other guitarist like him; maybe the closest was Eddie Van Halen who could compete with that insane squealing, sound effects, and trickery.
OMG, how cool is Tina!
u bet..they're all cool
Not just Tina, who's awesome, but Busta Jones on bass is big and fat in this...woah!
È stato un viaggio fantastico!!
Tina Weymouth kills it.
Totally. The look of steal, with the cat smile. AND THE BEATS!
Lee Hutchings - every single time
Tina nails it!
Wow this is funky and furious...thanks !
49:04 is the truth. The heat goes tf on ✊🏿
I Zimbra never disappoints.
Merci Talking Heads.

I’ve seen this recording 6 or 7 times. Sound and image may be poor, but the Italians did a wonderful job. While the movie Stop Making Sense is hopelessly focussing on David Byrne, the Italians give a clear view on all the musicians. In most concerts you hardly get a glimpse of the bass player, and in this recording you can see how Tina does a lot of these nice bass loops.
There are two bass players.
@@sex6cult9revolution In my opinion, aunt Tina is a very important bass player. The live album “the name of this band is talking heads” is dated 1982. At the time, I wondered why in some cases the base lines were marvelous and in some cases were hopeless. On seeing this video I could finally see the reason for this : Busta Cherry Jones is putting up a lot of visual show, while the real base playing is done by Tina.
@João de Arruda Campos Cardoso The answer has already been given 6 days ago by Drssexxy in his reply to the reaction of Sandra Otelli. I share his opinion, although he may be somewhat rude in the way he is saying things. But he seems to be knowing quite well what was going on in the group.
Sometimes, yes. The band is fantastic, but at other times the 80's Italian TV editing/production/effects is just irritating. Somebody should get their hands on the original tapes to this show and make a proper cut.
Didn't even know this existed! Only watched a few minutes (at work - shhhh). Totally checking this out later.
like.... holy shit. This is probably the most important concert ever.
😃 all time
Yeaaahhhhh
@@matthiasbanaschewski7329 that’s it
She rocks
Be good to have this as a proper walk around vr concert. Belew is an incredible player.
quelle leçon de groove! la batterie va tout droit. Solide.
I saw them in 1980 at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago (on the same stage my mother sang on in WW2) with this expanded ensemble. My chief memory of this was hearing "I Zimbra" Live and the downbeat was so loud and dramatic it sounded like the whole place was gonna collapse. Nice to see!
I saw them at Alpine Meadows, probably the same tour. Next night or the night before?
@@deanrolley I also remember Adrian Belew looked like he was having a blast!
Holy catastrophe Batman this IS the Heads that I’ll always return to and yes, thank you Phish Halloween Omni’ ATL ‘96 they performed the Remain in Light album in its entirety with Santana’s percussionist (originally recorded in the Bahamas with Robert mofo Palmer on that session) and thank you Brian Eno because good LORD this music is AMAZING!!!!
incredibile grazie
Thank you.
Love love love
As usual, Tina's baselines move and make the song.
Yeah, Tina's adding value up there. Very underrated bass player who contributes to the song. She seems to vibing with Adrian, tho'. Was this before she and Chris got together?
But is the two of them that we hear here? Busta and Tina?
@@aquamarine99911 She probably had a musician crush on Adrian Belew, he's a pretty damned talented guy. The interesting sounds he added in this era were probably a major seduction.
TINA ROCKS
😷I was never a big Talking Heads fan, pretty much because of MTV, I did enjoy and like their songs, however in hindsight I was a complete idiot for not checking out more of their stuff. Being the huge Rush fan I am, I can understand why they liked the Talking Heads so much, and as usual, before many had heard of them.🤘🖖✌️🎸🥁🎤🎹🤯
Perfect
woooooooooooooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww AMAZING
tina's wigglin at the start of cities is awesome

Adrian Belew! From Fripp, to Zappa, to T-Heads...what great band did he not make even better?
Too many to remember. How about the TVC-15 tour w/ Bowie ?
