A great album that has plenty of funk and tight arrangements. Talking Heads were often over analysed with plenty of post modern bollocks written about them. I think they were just a fantastic little dance band. I prefer the Talking Heads version of Take Me To the River over the original. Controversial.

I REALLY want to like Talking Heads, and love both Tom Tom Club and some of Byrne’s other work, such as Bush of Ghosts. But I just feel like they are trying too hard to be ‘quirky'. None of the tunes grabbed me here, particularly. Was pleasant throughout, without really grabbing my attention at any point.
