I haven't listened to this album in years - either I liked it a lot more this time around or I forgot how good it is. The last time I listened to this was about 10 years ago when I read David Byrne's book "How Music Works" - I remember reading about his experiments with found sound sampling and rhythm sampling that led to the creation of this album and later "Remain in Light", including recording late night radio preachers as heard on this album, and how their stylized sermons influenced songs like "Once In A Lifetime" As a Talking Heads fan, this album is a perfect amuse bouche for "Remain in Light". Or maybe it's more like the unfinished Michelangelo sculptures that guide your way up to see the David at the Galleria Accademia. The iconic piece is amazing, of course, but it is just as interesting and beautiful to see the artist's process.
