Editorial Review: Album Description: Formed in NYC in the mid-'70s by David Byrne, Chris Franz, Tina Weymouth, and ex-Modern Lover Jerry Harrison, the Talking Heads evolved out of their now-legendary humble beginnings at CBGB's to become one of the most adventurous and influential bands ever. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002, the Heads' visionary, polyrhythmic sound daringly combined funk and punk, African beats, avant-garde minimalism, and pure pop. From their 1977 debut through their Brian Eno-produced classics to their '88 farewell, Naked, they both pushed artistic boundaries and delivered indelible radio hits like "Once In A Lifetime" and "Burning Down The House."

A lot of bang for the buck. Rating: - An extremely well-done introduction to the bandThe 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 ...
