Music : The Best of Talking Heads
1 2 3 4 5
Rating: 
- Almost perfect - but minus 1 star for...
not including Stay Up Late. You know that song "please let me hold him, I want to make him stay up all night". If your a casual fan of TH and just wanted a greatest hits, like I said, it's almost perfect. It has the mainstream hits Take Me To The River, Once In A Lifetime, Burning Down The House, And She Was, Wild Wild Life, Psycho Killer. Although I really feel the version Psycho Chicken by The Fools is much better. But there ya go, 6 great songs for $14.99, ya ain't gonna find that on a late night infomercial.

.... thats what you must have if you dont grab this OUTSTANDING cd. only wish I had spotted it years ago, what a great set of tunes!!! A lot of bang for the buck.
Rating: - An extremely well-done introduction to the band
The Best of Talking Heads is the latest in a (relatively short compared to other artists) line of "Greatest Hits" for the band. However, if you are someone who is looking for a single-disc package of the best songs from each of the band's albums, this is the CD for you. With an average of two songs from each album and a running time of over 75 minutes, it gives a very good overview of the band. The songs are very well picked given the limitations of the medium, and I don't think you can do much better when trying to turn a casual listener into a full-fledged fan. Sure, you can argue about the selections: "Houses in Motion" over "Born Under Punches"? No "I Zimbra"? But remember, this CD is for "new" listeners, and throwing songs like "Born Under Punches" in is like trying to teach calculus to a five-year-old. As for "I Zimbra", it pales in comparison to the other three selections from Fear of Music. Overall, this album is a great conversion tool to pop in while driving with a friend, which is exactly what it is for.
Rating: - GREAT CD

All of the best of Talking Heads, good cd!!! I hadn't heard some of the songs and love them better than the ones I had heard. Heaven is a great song and so is Road to Nowhere.
