TheGreek Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 [quote name='fleabag' timestamp='1487038601' post='3236511'] Love that 80's teal green Veillette Citron, Greek. They have a much more pleasing shape than modern V-C's [/quote] Sold to another BCer who painted it white...I'm told it looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alyctes Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 (edited) Every time I watch Stop Making Sense (about twice a year, I'm a fan) she always looks terrified but determined. Edited February 16, 2017 by alyctes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrumpymike Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Stop Making Sense is a classic. I remember seeing it at our local 'art-house' cinema (the Phoenix in Finchley Central) just after it was released and within 20 minutes everybody was up bopping in the aisles. Re the lovely Tina, I'd say she was just a bit highly strung - or maybe just high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] An American friend was round and leafing through my record collection, pulling out the occasional oddity or something he considered curious. I tried to be cool and say "yeah this was the first record I ever bought" re Stop Making Sense. "Oh, Talking Heads? yeah, nice. I was at the gig where they recorded that show" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
