among music lovers in Italy, this concert had a legendary status. something to compare with. "yeah, it was a good concert, but certainly not like TH in Roma...". I knew a guy older than me (i was 10 in 1980 ) who went to this concert. he spoke of it like he saw Moses coming down the mountain

That is the perfect description of this band: tribal funk. The fusion of sound here is so fresh and innovative, just bursting with raw energy and individual creativity. All members of the band soar with a freedom of spirit, becoming a wonder to behold. It struck me that the unique essence of Byrne, with his Asperger's-like qualities, fosters unbridled responses in others, plainly displayed in his band. They are a continuation of his vision, offering a unique and boundless interpretation of life. Remember the line from the Crosseyed and Painless track, "Facts cut a hole in us." It is almost like Byrne transcends reality, revealing something about ourselves that we weren't aware of, but was always there. His ability to recognize those subconscious ideas, describe them in his lyrics, then express them in his music, is astonishing. Perhaps we should consider the notions of other similarly affected people, such as Greta Thunberg, and take them a bit more seriously. Differences can be bazaar, but they can also lead to new ways of doing things. We are often so afraid of change and reluctant to do things a different way. However, as Talking Heads revealed, new ways can be downright glorious!

"Talking Heads in Rome 1980" with Adrian Belew it's not just a concert, It's a "milestone"! It is a mystical experience, ten artists in a state of divine inspiration who play as they have never done before and will never do after, and a gigantic and monumental Adrian Belew who finds creative solutions that make the pieces of Remain in Light unique and different from the studio album , he engages in explorations of sounds that will make him cited as the white Jimi Hendrix and gives the band's sound openings, electric landscapes and languid reverberations to the amplifiers that will inspire future generations from Japan to Guns N' Roses! The songs from "Remain in Light" without Adrian Belew will never sound like they did on that tour again.

Nona Hendrix,Patti LaBelle(I think). Busta Cherry Jones bass, Belew...don't remember everyone...it was a big band. It was like the Martians had landed. And it was LOUD!! The concert got more and more amazing as it went on, the pacing was perfect. They really hooked into the hypnotic African roots of the music.

@@ciaranward3559 Yeah, I suspect most of the Heads music was group written. I remember Belew saying that he contributed to some of the songwriting on the Tom Tom Club record, but he kinda stiffed out of his credits (and I guess, publishing). Not sure what he would have contributed to Remain In Light, as I kinda had the impression that he went and did some guitar overdubs, so I gather most of the material was already written.

This ranks as one of the best concerts I ever attended and I saw the Heads, Zappa, King Crimson and Adrian's band The Bears, several times, along with many other acts over the years., This particular Talking Heads concert was about the most memorable ever. They did 3 encores. They actually went out the side of the theater to their limo, crowd was so loud shaking the entire building, they came back inside to do another one.

That was the stuff they did during the gap between Remain In Light and Speaking In Tongues.

Mike Page Belew definitely learned a lot from Talking Heads that he brought to Crim. I think it really helped him hone his vocals. I’ll be seeing KC tomorrow for the first time. No Belew, but that’s a concert for another time!

I have the impression there's not enough money in the world to make that happen. I know at one point, Jerry, Chris and Tina were recording and touring as "The Heads" (saw them open for The Who in 96), but I'm not sure if any of them want to work with Byrne again, or indeed, I imagine he's been a solo artist so long, I imagine Byrne would have no interest in playing with the other three either.
