There's never going to be another Talking Heads album, but I can imagine this is what they would sound like at this point--nice review!

Pretty much, some songs here could have near enough featured on ‘Naked’



Or ‘Nothing but Flowers’ could have featured here with a little tweak here and there

Mildly enjoyable nonsense. Skipped around his other solo albums and they seem pretty hit-and-miss.

These lyrics are so quirky almost to a fault. It seems to me like a free-spirited little kid could just as well write some of these lines.

That's essentially been his thing for over forty years, although I doubt any kid could write something so restrained as this.

Nothing quite like that, although I Dance Like This and Here are probably worth a check if you want to see if this worth a listen.

Oddly enough, I don't think I've heard that second Byrne/Eno album



A nice 37 minutes on this one (Eyeball at 38 and Grown Backwards at 55)

it's wonderful. you can't compare it to Life in the Bush of course because one is a very lovely pop rock album and the other one basically invented a genre. but if you take Everything That Happens on its own merits its fucking lovely
