(USA Today, 10/29/1999, p.13E, Mike Clark), "...This is a magnificent performance by America's greatest rainbow-funk art-and-party band..."

Synopsis:
Jonathan Demme revolutionized the art of shooting rock concerts with this innovative and lively record of the Talking Heads. Filmed at the Pantages Theater in Los Angeles, California, this video cements the group’s place as one of the day's most unique rock groups. Among the 18 songs included are "Take Me to the River," "Once in a Lifetime," and "Burnin' Down the House." Starting with a solo by David Byrne, the film escalates as the other members join in.
