Stop Making Sense

It makes no sense that it’s the 40th Anniversary of the Talking Head’s concert movie, Stop Making Sense. Where has the time gone?

I used to have the cassette tape of the album. It was much shorter than the 90 minutes of the film missing several cuts. I have never really seen the entire film so imagine my surprise they even had the Tom Tom Club’s “Genius of Love!” Did not know that was in the film. Now I know. Genius.

If you haven’t listened, then listen or watch this film. I wanted to dance. The audience was older than I was when I watched it. I would have to say they were maybe college students when this movie came out and Talking Heads were their jam. I can say it was also my jam. I played the cassette all the time in my VW Golf while going to school. Psycho Killer. Naive Melody. This must me the place.

I guess I did enjoy it.

4 of 5 stars.
