I have to admit, I’ve got a bit of a man-crush on David Byrne.
When most people hear his name they usually think of The Talking Heads, but he’s got a great solo act now and every now and then he’ll put out a new album. Some albums are good and some are a little weird, but each has a very unique sound that makes it very hard to classify his music.
Look Into The Eyeball from 2001 is, I think, his greatest work so far. I even consider it to be a part of my “Top 10 albums ever made” list.
I really need to see him play live someday. The 12MB Quicktime video of The Great Intoxication over here is just absolutely awesome. It’s one of my favorite songs and it’s performed flawlessly. Check it out, dudes.
