Byrne Baby Byrne

I suppose if we are going to do a family pick of the Talking Heads, their lead singer and kind of the leader of the group should have his own pick. Like all of the rest of the band, there is no greatest hits of David Byrne (at least that I have ever seen.) But I do think that pick would look a lot like this compilation here. A sampling from his solo albums, his collaborations with Brian Eno and also his guests with Fatboy Slim and X Press. And one Talking Heads track that is from a 12 inch single. Byrne is eclectic, but he's a genius as well, or maybe he is one because of the other. No one knows for sure. I just know I like his work. He absorbs his environment, so be prepared to be surprised. Go look up his curated discs from around the world. Also good.
