Talking Heads was already a post-punk powerhouse before Jonathan Demme’s fabled 1984 concert film Stop Making Sense helped make the band a pop-culture legend. Now the movie can be experienced with heightened visual clarity and auditory bliss, thanks to Tuesday’s release of the film’s 25th-anniversary edition on Blu-ray.

That timely release will give Talking Heads loyalists and latecomers alike a chance to answer a question that’s been burning down the house: Is Stop Making Sense the greatest concert film ever?
