There was a day I couldn't get enough of Leonard Cohen, Dylan, and all the other super talkers. But tonight I only ordered two copies of "Talking Heads 77" (this is no advertisement). Cohen, Dylan and the rest were like acid: I did it and don't want to go back (well maybe with the acid if it were legal) there's something about Cohen and Dylan I can't listen to anymore but the Talking Heads is different - something timeless.
I think the 77 album is the one that captured me. In fact, I saw them on tour in 78 or so. I can go back to the Talking Heads but just can't go back to Dylan. I had to have friends physically remove all of Leonard Cohen's music (back in the day of CD's) - I like, love, but gotta leave be for my own good.
I just bought two of Talking Heads 77 album so I can give one to my daughter. Their "big" hit "Psycho Killer" is actually my least favorite cut on the entire album. The rest is brilliant.
Sorry, Gobbled Be Ook, that I couldn't go out flaming. Shouldn't I be blocked just for caring about what you think?
redundantly,
Verne
