Music reviews of Remain in Light

Music Review: Remain in Light
Rating: 5 Stars

I love this release from the Talking Heads because with their rise to superstardom when MTV became hot. This album is great to show the orginal four with various backing from Brian Eno, vocals, guitar and percussionist added fills the tracks nicely. It showcases the bands mixture from previously released 1970's material.

I would suggest to get the CD "The name of this band is the Talking Heads". CD 2 has many great live cuts from this album

Description of Remain in Light

Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) pressing. Warner.
Way back in 1980, the original wave of Talking Heads fans were pleasantly stunned to hear Remain in Light, produced and co-written by Brian Eno, on which Byrne and company are joined by guitar god Adrian Belew, and funk legends Bernie Worrell (keyboards) and Steven Scales (percussion), among others, for a fuller, funkier sound nobody imagined they had in them. The first three songs are long, layered, full-body dance parties, with incessantly repeated phrases (musical and lyrical), and increasingly catchy melodic hooks that won't let go for days. "Once in a Lifetime" was the big hit, but the rockingest track is the third, "The Great Curve," after which the songs get more linear and subdued. It's still great stuff, right through to the especially Eno-like droner, "The Overload," but the second half is maybe better to sleep to than dance to. Which is fine: after the exuberance of the first three songs, you'll need a little nap. --Dan Leone
