The Tom Tom Club play Genius of Love

The Tom Tom Club (Tina and Chris from Talking Heads, and friends and family) play Genius of Love at a Talking Heads show (this may well be from Demme's Stop Making Sense film). When I lived in NYC, we saw the Talking Heads many times at CBGB, at the short lived CBGB Second Avenue, and in Central Park. I always loved watching Tina play bass. And she had great legs.

Anonymous said...: Yeah, this is Stop Making Sense footage. The Tom Tom club was cool - they once played a 3-week gig at CBGB during which many musicians dropped by and sat in with them, including Lou Reed...
