  • Re: USCHO Music Thread 3: They Heard Me Singing

    This got me in the mood, so...

    Talking Heads 8/24/79 Boston FM broadcast

    Great to be hearing while I'm cleaning up the disaster that the kitchen became after enchiladas and margs.


    Rufus - I have it coz my sister got it. She bought it on iTunes and I belive it's the whole thing.

    She was the one who got me into Talking Heads. And Rush... and Floyd... etc...

    Thanks though.


    EDIT: Wife walks through kitchen and says, "I like (the) Talking Heads, but I always feel like he's shouting at me. Kinda like the B-52s."



    Although she loathes the B-52s.

    Myself? I always kinda sorta liked the B-52s and then on a whim, agreed to go see them with some waitresses from the restaurant I was working at. Had a blast. Total dance fest and a great show. Summer of 90, I believe.


    EDIT 2: Perfect. Take Me to the River ended just as I was wiping down the counters.

      Fred does kinda shout. That's cause he can't sing.
      What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

        Having karoaked the B-52s more than a few times, it's kind of an anti-nasal shout. I'm a dead ringer for his voice, which is a blessing and (more of) a curse.
        Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

          Listened to "God Shuffled His Feet" by the Crash Test Dummies yesterday since I heard "Afternoons and Coffeespoons" on the radio on Monday. Been a long time since I listened to it, but I still enjoy it.

                Awesome, thanks. Love the, "eww" that would make Fallon proud and dancing in the 80s? Well that's how we did it.

                  The Name of this Band is Talking Heads is great too, but I didn't have that till much later in life.


                  Remain in Light is my favorite of their studio stuff.
                  Hmm, I'll have to check those live LP's out. This weekend I bought their first few LP's. So far I've spun through Talking Heads: 77 3x and I really really enjoy it. I'll dig into the rest of what I bought as the week progresses. I get easily sidetracked with music so instead of moving on to the 2nd Talking Heads LP right away I jumped into The Specials, of which I only have a best-of for now. Great stuff!

                    This'll be waiting for you at the end of More Songs About......................

                    My local radio station played this last week, and it just reminded me why I love Talking Heads so.

                    And you really should give this a listen. If you're not a fan of dance, then you don't have to watch it, but the score is terrific.

                    The Catherine Wheel, score by David Byrne. My favorite track from it is probably Dense Beasts, Brian Eno on bass. .

                      The Movement - Golden

                      Released today. So incredibly good.

                      Best (Alternative) (White-boy) reggae (rock) album in quite some time. Far better than recent releases by Slightly Stoopid and Stick Figure who are both favorites of mine.


                      Second time through and lovin' it.

                      Going to see Gilmour and this knocked me right the f off my Floyd binge.

                        So you were binging, but now you're purging? That sounds healthy.

                            I love this music video because of the video shots of the crowd after each song.
                            Culture shock for sure. You can only imagine what they were saying to each other
