    Best album is Remain In Light, from 1980. Eno is just the guy to give your band a different kind of energy ( Like U2. Come on, he was the 5th member for nearly a decade, he just didn't tour with them!), and check out My Life In the Bush of Ghosts, a collaboration between Eno and David Byrne from 1981. Really interesting samples, and Oliver Stone used one of the tracks (America Is Waiting) in Wall Street. Talking Heads' best track was The Great Curve from Remain In Light. Adrian Belew laid down some crazy guitar magic, and even Robert Palmer (for it was he)did some percussion. Genius track, and played live really well.

    • @syaoranoni54326
