Being a bit of a Talking Heads fan I bought this in vinyl when it first came out and have to admit to being somewhat disappointed.
There were none of the bright tunes and intelligent yet lovable lyrics I had come to know and love from "77" or "More Songs". In their place were very dark tunes with heavy, heavy lyrics, a lot of politics and I didn't like it.
I replaced the vinyl with polycarbonate when it came out on CD - I could afford to do things like that back then - and played it again. It dfidn't sound so bad but I still didn't like it that much.
I have to admit the intervening years haven't changed my opinion that much, this is most certainly NOT my favourite Talkiing Heads album but I do still pull it out and play it every now again. But not that often!
The best tracks have to be 'Life During Wartime' and 'Electric Guitar' but I have to stress they are the best tracks ON THIS CD and, in my opinion, not very good compared to the rest of Talking Heads' output. I would recommend almost any other Talking Heads CD over this one any day of the week.
I'm going to listen to it again tonight and pass my final comments then. I'll get back to you as soon as I have. Ok?
TO BE CONTINUED RSN [Real Soon Now].
