Description:

Remain In Light by Talking Heads, released 10 August 1984, includes the following tracks: "The Great Curve ( Lp Version )", "Houses In Motion ( Lp Version )", "Listening Wind ( Lp Version )" and more. This version of Remain In Light comes as a 1xCD. -

Way back in 1980, the original wave of Talking Heads fans were pleasantly stunned to hear Remain in Light, produced and co-written by Brian Eno, on which Byrne and company are joined by guitar god Adrian Belew, and funk legends Bernie Worrell (keyboards) and Steven Scales (percussion), among others, for a fuller, funkier sound nobody imagined they had in them. The first three songs are long, layered, full-body dance parties, with incessantly repeated phrases (musical and lyrical), and increasingly catchy melodic hooks that won't let go for days. "Once in a Lifetime" was the big hit, but the rockingest track is the third, "The Great Curve," after which the songs get more linear and subdued. It's still great stuff, right through to the especially Eno-like droner, "The Overload," but the second half is maybe better to sleep to than dance to. Which is fine: after the exuberance of the first three songs, you'll need a little nap.

Vladimir S. - 11/Jun/2022 You notice how so many reviews say "the best"? Well it's true. This album is a masterpiece. This record recommendation all melomans!

Robert S. - 23/Mar/2021 This album is a masterpiece. This is the album where Brian Eno hits his peak, and his genius is evident throughout.

Kris Lorenz - 19/Jun/2009 Talking Heads? 1980 album, ?Remain in Light,? is among the most inventive and fun albums in music history. It is absolutely a culmination of everythin...

Alexander M. - 12/Sep/2016 Fusion von Rock, Pop und Weltmusik. Eine Meilenstein der 80iger Jahren. Aber kein reines Pop Album, dafür sind die Songs zu sperrig. Once in a Lifetime ist der Überhit auf dem Album, wer nach weiteren Hits ausschau hält ist mit dem Nachfolger Speaking in Tongues besser bedient. Gutes Album der Talking Heads aber für mich nicht das Beste der Gruppe.
