oh for godsake, why does every old TH video have first comment of some guy saying tina is the best/ under-rated/ carrying the band. she was a beginner, it's only a 3 piece so every instrument is critical with the song dependent on it. ultimately DB is closest to carrying everything - songs, music, lyrics, voice.

Never made it to CBGBs but I saw this pre-Jerry iteration in a 1976 in a bar in New England with about 25 people in the audience. It was utterly riveting. They did a truly hot and tight 50 minute set…basically doing all the songs that ended up on the first two albums. Byrne’s nervous gangly anxious “Norman Bates” vibe was very authentic while his vocals and guitar work was really top not, anchored by Franz and Weymouth’s rock-solid Motown-by-way-of Bowery rhythm section. Back then there was no “Indie Rock”. Totally unique for its time (or any time)…and let’s face it, TH were still years away from truly making it outside NYC and a few college radio stations.

could I presume to add to your insights? I? think the precision in their play is rooted in the privileged manner in which they were introduced to those traditions (suburban music lessons, not to put too fine a point on it) (not to deny or otherwise obscure the racial structurings): that precision and distance is attributable in equal parts to instructor dynamics, physical location, and playback machinery.
