Talking Heads

Talking Heads were an American rock band formed in 1975 in New York City and active until 1991.[1]  The band comprised David Byrne (lead vocals and guitar), Chris Frantz (drums and backing vocals), Tina Weymouth (bass and backing vocals) and Jerry Harrison (keyboards, guitar, and backing vocals). Other musicians also regularly made appearances in concert and on the group's albums. The new wave style of Talking Heads combined elements of punk rock, art rock, avant-garde, pop, funk, world music, and Americana. Frontman and songwriter David Byrne contributed whimsical, esoteric lyrics to the band's songs, and emphasized their showmanship through various multimedia projects and performances.

Critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine described Talking Heads as being "one of the most critically acclaimed bands of the '80s, while managing to earn several pop hits."[2]  In 2002, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Four of the band's albums appeared on Rolling Stone magazine's 2003 list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, and the Channel 4 100 Greatest Albums poll listed one album (Fear of Music) at number 76. In the 2011 update of Rolling Stone 's "100 Greatest Artists of All Time", the band was ranked at No. 100.[3]

There Byrne and Frantz formed a band called "The Artistics" in 1974.[4]  Weymouth was Frantz's girlfriend and often provided transportation for the band. The Artistics dissolved within a year, and the three moved to New York, eventually sharing a communal loft.[5]  Unable to find a bass player in New York City, Frantz encouraged Weymouth to learn to play bass by listening to Suzi Quatro albums.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Bass_Player_6-0" style="line-height:1;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;">[6]  They played their first gig as "Talking Heads" opening for the Ramones at CBGB on June 20, 1975.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-halloffame_1-1" style="line-height:1;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;">[1]

They quickly drew a following and were signed to Sire Recordsin 1977. The group released their first single, "Love → Building on Fire" in February that year. In March 1977, they added Jerry Harrison (keyboards, guitar, backing vocals), formerly of Jonathan Richman's band The Modern Lovers.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-rs_flashback_8-0" style="line-height:1;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;">[8]

The album received considerable acclaim and spawned what became the group's first charted single, "Psycho Killer".<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-allmusic_77_9-0" style="line-height:1;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;">[9]  The song was released to the radio just months after the serial killer known as the Son of Sam was terrorizing New York City, prompting many to assume of some eerie connection.

But it grew into a popular standard over the next few years on the strength of its music video, which was named one of Time magazine'sAll-TIME Best Music Videos.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-26" style="line-height:1;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;">[26] <sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-27" style="line-height:1;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;">[27]
