Toon Rock: And She Was (1985)

 "And She Was" was a single off Talking Heads' 1985 CD, "Little Creatures". Director Jim Blashfield took his cues from comedian-turned-filmmaker Terry Gilliam (ex-Monty Python's Flying Circus) in creating the general look of the video.

Pulled from lead singer David Byrne's YouTube channel.


Blashfield seems to have been forgotten in the wake of Stephen R. Johnson's work the next year with Peter Gabriel ("Sledgehammer", "Big Time"), which led to Johnson helming Pee-Wee's Playhouse.
