Like Television, this is one of those debut albums that solidified their place in music history. They could have quit after 77 and we would still be listening to this album almost 50 years later.

A superb debut. "Psycho Killer" is one of the all-time singles in new wave/post-punk. Perfect parts funky and bizarre.
Rating: 4/5 [Excellent]

Obviously a classic. However, when I go looking for a Talking Heads album to listen to, it's not one I reach for very often. It's a great post punk album but they have more interesting albums in their discography. Still a 4/5 for me though.

It's a shame he's an alleged child sexual abuser, but damn what an album and impact.

So for those that don’t know. In 2016 a man accused Afrika of abusing him as 15 yo in 1980. Bambaataa denied it and the other accusers, but then stepped down from his leadership role in the Zulu Nation. Melle Mel confirmed the stories in 2021, stating that everyone in the Bronx knew.

Yeah, Unfortunately he gives me a bit of the Michael Jackson and Gary Glitter ick when I hear is music now which is a shame since he has a lot of absolute bangers.

Was hoping @Yer Ol' Uncle D would come school us on this one. It’s one of those I wish I would spend more time with records.

Such a great, important record. Kinda like The Velvet Underground, The 13th Floor Elevators influence spans well beyond their time making music.
If you've never seen this documentary, you need to.

Just love everything about this album and the one that follows it. Both unimpeachable. You know who on top form vocally and lyrically and Johnny Marr just really tears it up here. For a band tagged as jingle jangle every track on here uses a different guitar tone and style. This album will never get old.

I'm actually not sure if I've ever listened to this one. How is that even possible?
