Formed in NYC within the mid-’70s by David Byrne, Chris Franz, Tina Weymouth, and ex-Modern Lover Jerry Harrison, the Talking Heads advanced out of their now-legendary humble beginnings at CBGB’s to turn into some of the adventurous and influential bands ever. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002, the Heads’ visionary, polyrhythmic sound daringly mixed funk and punk, African beats, avant-garde minimalism, and pure pop. From their 1977 debut by way of their Brian Eno-produced classics to their ’88 farewell, Naked, they each pushed inventive boundaries and delivered indelible radio hits like “Once In A Lifetime” and “Burning Down The House.”TALKING HEADS THE BEST OF TALKING HEADS
