Cities (Live) (Remastered) by Talking Heads off Live At The Heatwave Festival, Bowmanville, Ontario, 23 Aug '80 (Remastered) (2015) carries the feel of a band in a room rather than a mood-board tag, and that physicality matters in a sequence.

The record earns its place through how the arrangement opens and tightens rather than through sheer mass.
