This was broadcast by Channel 4 in the UK as a documentary, though in fact it's a live concert interspersed with interview snippets and odd bits of bizarre TV footage from adverts and what have you as you would expect from David Byrne. He is credited as "creative consultant" in the TV production. All songs are complete.

I recorded this onto VHS tape when it was broadcast in 1984, and have recently captured it onto my PC via ATI 9000 All In Wonder. Slightly processed in TMPGEnc just to boost the volume a little. The audio and visual quality is not bad considering the age of the VHS tape and VHS technology at the time, there is a little noise at the bottom of the picture and some very occasional flickering at the top. Picture is not crystal clear, but it's perfectly watchable.

A few seconds in there seems to be a lot of interference but this is intentional and it gradually "tunes in" to a channel hopping selection of clips.

Good selection of songs.
