Track Listing:

1 Born Under Punches (The Heat Goes on)
2 Crosseyed And Painless
3 The Great Curve
4 Once in a Lifetime
5 Houses in Motion
6 Seen And Not Seen
7 Listening Wind
8 The Overload

Impossibly cool Talking Heads highpoint from 1980.

Another collaboration with Brian Eno, this was a leap in the dark musically, since although it wasn't the first Rock album to feature African influences, at the time it was easily the most artistically successful. The African influence provided driving rhythms for the Heads' literate songs, and the combination sounds pretty much like nothing before, or since.

Dazzling...

This one's a no-brainer man. Love this album although my favourite talking heads is the '77 debut.
