Talking Heads had just gotten famous when I got to Providence. They were students at the Rhode Island School of Design, and naturally I just missed them; they used to perform all over the place just before I got here in 1978. All I got was a bunch of wannabe cover bands singing “Psycho Killer.”
Here is a nice video of a live 1983 performance of one of their iconic songs: “Burning Down the House.” It is electric.
Enjoy.
