Reviews
- As well as the highly visual set NYC art-rockers itself is this collector, both in the field of sound as art, smart and beautiful at the same time. From the early days of the band, at the end of the 1970s, Once In A Lifetime raging, urban tracks like Don't Worry About The Government and Pulled Up. From the city shifts the setting to broader areas with Take Me To The River, the Al Green cover that their breakthrough, and the rural strum of The Big Country. The second disc let the height of their fruitful collaboration with Brian Eno, while frontman David Byrne a new high on both textual as experimental plane, with the iconic title number. The third drive draws from the later years of the band and contains their most accessible songs (And She Was, Road To Nowhere and Wild Wild Life) along with the previously unreleased In Asking Land. A nice overview of the constantly imaginative and restless energetic ensemble that the Talking Heads once was.
Probably one of the best 'best of' compilations of any band. if you want a solid introduction to talking heads go get this one.
No weak spots at all... definitely one for the tape deck in your car or one of those new fangled walkmans.... ZAPP POW WHACK,
Err, I mean put it on your phone from any reputable music streaming service..
Do yourself a favour though.. buy their records period.
