Insane. This is so insanely good that it deserves 5 stars for side 1 alone --- even though side 2 isn't so great.
A Genre Bending Funk-Rock Masterpiece. I am a funk music fan. I love the classic James Brown, Parliament-Funkadelic, Earth, Wind and Fire, and the Isley Brothers music from the 70's. The Talking Heads' 1980 release "Remain in Light" is an amazingly funky album that any true "Funkateer" or funk music fan will thoroughly enjoy. The polyrhythms and the electronic sound effects are reminiscent of classic P-Funk (in fact, Parliament-Funkadelic alums Bernie Worrell, Lynn Mabrey, and Dolette MacDonald would be featured prominently on subsequent Talking Heads recordings "Speaking in Tongues" and "Stop Making Sense"). "Remain in Light" features great dancefloor music but is perhaps best appreciated though a set of high quality headphones. Listen to "Born Under the Punches" or the album's best known song "Once in A Lifetime". David Byrne's vocals are simultanously passionate and withdrawn, paranoid yet assured. His rants would not be out of place on a Parliament album - philosophizing with Dr. Funkenstein and Sir Nose D'Voidoffunk. The other songs are just as remarkable. This album is the perfect merger of the funk and rock music of the period. Excellent!
Desert Island Disk. The peak of the collaboration between the four members of the Talking Heads and producer Brian Eno. There are sounds on this album that are still innovative 28 years later. They truly started a new genre of music here, blending instruments, rhythmic patterns, and lyrically delivery in ways that influence a wide variety of artists to this day. The new master of this album, overseen by Jerry Harrison brings elements barely head before into sharper focus. Recommended to new and old fans.
Vastly Improved Sound Quality. I bought these tracks about 6 months ago and the sound quality & volume was terribly low & muffled >> like someone pressing a thick pillow over the speakers. I just checked the samples again & it sounds like someone has fixed this problem. The tracks now have a thrilling three dimensional punch that rivals the best quality remasters on iTunes >> Great job on this timeless, landmark LP!!!!!
Overload of Awesome. This is Talking Heads' best album. Their mixture of funk, rock, and Afro-beat is just mind-blowing. The first track is just an overload of awesome.

Wayne. This is the worst album i ever bought.I remember being so dissapointed when i first played it. Sometimes music grows on you but this album just didnt.
remains one of the best. Quite simply one of the best albums ever made,in it's original form.......interesting but unecessary extra tracks somehow detract from the stunning impact of the original 9 songs. If you don't have this album your collection is seriously lacking
