Nous sommes entrés en contact avec Grandmaster Flash...Nous écoutions aussi du reggae et de la musique africaine, donc le hip-hop s’est parfaitement intégré à tout cela. C’était une époque très ouverte culturellement.
Beaucoup de rappeurs allaient en France parce que les Français étaient très ouverts.

De la genialidad de David Byrne junto al bajo de Tina Weymouth y la batería de Chris Frantz:

«Speaking in Tongues» - Talking Heads

#TalkingHeads #Vinilos #VinylRecords #NowPlaying #LaSicodelica #Vinyl #Rock #DavidByrne #TinaWeymouth #ChrisFrantz

"Genius of Love" is a song by American #newWave band #TomTomClub, released in September 1981 by #Sire and #WarnerBros as the second single from their eponymous debut studio album (1981). The song is written by #AdrianBelew, #ChrisFrantz, #StevenStanley and #TinaWeymouth, and produced by the three latter. It reached number one on the US #Billboard #DiscoTop80 chart, and was performed by #TalkingHeads (the group from which Tom Tom Club originated).

Talking Heads, Speaking in Tongues, 1983 on Sire

This was the fifth Talking Heads LP, produced by Talking Heads themselves rather than Brian Eno. It was the tour for this album which became Stop Making Sense, including their only US top 10 hit “Burning Down The House.”

What a killer album. In addition to “Burning Down The House” you’ve got “Making Flippy Floppy,” “Girlfriend is Better,” “Slipper People,” and “This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody).” The band is joined by Steve Scales, Bernie Worrell, Nona Hendry and Dolette McDonald, Alex Weir, Wally Badarou, Raphael Dejeesus and others.

My copy is a 2013 Rhino reissue – it is difficult to find original pressings of Talking Heads LPs in the wild that are reasonable and in good shape. But I think this reissue series is great in terms of consistency and quality – not necessarily advertised as “audiophile” but sounds great to me.

Via Slipped Disc at a Mill No. 5 record fair.

Talking Heads on the unifying pull of 'Stop Making Sense'

"Why has it been a long time?"
"-Lives diverge."

"[T]here was something so special about the way we made music together; I've never found the same exact thing."

"[W]e really do appreciate how special our relationship musically was. I mean, you're trying to talk about conflicts, but conflicts are just human."

A lot of the Tom Tom Club's more well-known music is pretty silly, but not this one. Love this one.
