Here are some good quotes you might want to use as well.
- Talking Heads 77: "on 77 Byrne acts the role of a New Man, child of bureaucracy and mass culture, as likely to get turned on by an office building as by a fellow human being. 7 sounds less like a pop record than like somebody's idea of a op record, so cleanly recorded it's almost as creepy as Muzak. His characters sound like the creations of an art student who read Marx and Foucault one summer, got excited by the energy of the ideas, but instead of buying into the doom and gloom recast the critique as children's verse. At the time, this was difficult to recognize—Byrne's yelping vocals could only be heard as the squeals of someone not far removed from the psycho killer he famously sang about here—but in retrospect, accustomed to his voice, we can hear what a genuinely happy record 77 is." pg. 394
Hope these help! Great great work on The Talking Heads articles! I only wish there was so much printed material on Eno. If there's any question to a misspelling I might have put here, feel free to ask and I'll try and clean it up. Andrzejbanas (talk) 20:01, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
