Talking Heads – Fear of Music

There are not many albums I regret trading or giving away. Yet this is one of them. I was too young to appreciate my $8 copy I originally had and gave it to a friend. Many years later here I am re-buying it - a repress. Not for $8.

I picked this up as I’m on my Talking Heads / David Byrne rabbit hole and I couldn’t stop thinking about how good Life During Wartime sounded live. Re listening to this, I can appreciate now that David was taking the band on a journey of varied sound with Eno, and I was just not there yet in my late teens.
