Talking Heads: Double Groove (Remain In Light cut) Brian Eno
Posted by: suburbanbatherson
Video duration: 155 seconds
Remain In Light is one of the greatest albums of the last thirty years........ Here is a wordless vocal track (in the I-Zimbra afrobeat tribal chant style) with Fela / Can like harmonies and plenty-o-grooving. I think I can hear David Byrne, Eno & Tina Weymouth doing the warbling....... Footage from an OTT Hollywood 'party spectacular' short that borders on a Daliesque nightmare.
