You
definitely have to have the taste for Talking Heads, and even then
you have to be in the mood for them. Not that that's bad, it's just indicative of their eclectic sound. This, their second album, yielded their first hit, 'Take Me to the River.' |

What
an incredible album! I can just see a huge throng of people who bought this
album for the single ('Life During Wartime'), standing around and scratching their heads in bewilderment when they first heard this album. Sycophants. Wouldn't know anything good if it jumped up and bit them on the bum. It still amazes me that this record set Talking Heads on the road to greatness. Albums this good and this weird aren't supposed to sell. But this one did. |

Y'know,
it's kinda befitting that the Talking Heads commercial breakthrough
was a song about people spontaneously combusting. Quirky band, quirky song. Goes to show that you never know what the masses will go for. |

In
1984, a noted Hollywood director
made an outstanding rock concert film. What a joy he chose the Talking Heads. When Sire released the soundtrack, they decided against a double album and stuck with the highlights for a single album release. Seventeen years later, the re-issued CD re-master contains the entire concert. Whatever we did to deserve this, I'm sure glad we did it! * indicates CD tracks |

The
poppiest album Talking Heads ever made, it was probably their most
commercial, too. I love this record! Cool songs, lots of airplay (radio and MTV), and the world was a much better place because of it. |

Supposedly
the soundtrack to the David Byrne film of the same name, this album
had no direction whatsoever. From what I hear, the same can be said for the film, too. A couple good songs, but overall pretty lacklustre |

A
very cool double CD set spanning the career of one of the most influential,
intelligent, and artistic bands of the 80s. Also has a couple 'new' tunes, which is always nice. |
