Coolest
My favorite band.
love them...fave album probably remain in light but it's hard to choose
The most consistent band of all time. Not one bad album. Clever, weird, funky and energetic! Love them!
Me likey.
One of the toughest bands to rank albums for. They had a stretch of 4 or 5 in from 77-84 that are all fantastic, yet none stand out as the definable Talking Heads. Great albums, great band. So much funkiness.
The best of the new wave bands. The growth of the band from quirky geek rock to cool hip world-beaters was an amazing thing to witness. But I wouldn't want to have missed a moment of Talking Heads '77 in lieu of Remain In Light or even Naked. In rock history they kind of get lost in the names, but the Heads were a so important in the 80's. They got me through a lot of rough nights in college. It WAS a party, it WAS a disco, we just LOVED fooling around!
Like their worldbeat style in Remain in Light.
Loser !
Talking Heads in one vote shy of the leader in the BEA Poll Final. Check it out and vote at http://www.besteveralbums.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1618
