Free Music Review: Talking Heads' one dud
Hit: 2 Stars
Nothing against those who love this album - you have your own reasons to enjoy it, and I think that's great. This is more for those newly exploring the Talking Heads oeuvre who would like to know where to start, or go next. In my opinion, not here.
I don't worship Talking heads, but I do love Remain in Light, find great joys in Fear of Music, More Songs..., '77, Speaking in Tongues, and grooved nearly every weekend for months to the midnight showing of Stop Making Sense back in the late 80's. This Talking Heads album, however, delivers one disappointment after another.
Personally, I find that pretty much each song falls flat (such as the irritating "hit" Wild Wild Life). Papa Legba does have a nice lilt to it, though. It's the one song on this record that I return to, albeit rarely.
Even the swan song Naked is better than this one (the Heads album doesn't count). If you like early/mid era Talking Heads, skip this one, or get it cheap if you must. I have nothing against Americana, or even attempts at arch commentary on the ersatz quality of much that comprises Americana; but dull is dull.
