250 Albums- An Arbitrary Rumble Through My Record Collection # 216 Talking Heads.- Fear of Music

 


The last sixty years has been a very strange emotional journey for us all. It's difficult to describe quite how the world has changed. In terms of the way we live,. The way we interact. The way we work. The way we think.. 

It's always interesting to listen to Talking Heads with this in mind. They were a band who highlighted the strange, Alienation. Take Fear Of Music. It has eleven songs which focus on how life is essentially a strange passage of experience. 

It has incredible perspectives of existence, staggering production values and incredible lyrics and playing. It's not a record that sounds dated in any respect. In fact quite the eopposite. All of the best music is written about the future
