I didn't get into the Talking Heads until "Swamp", "Take me to the River" and "Burning Down the House". It was these songs that turned me on to David Byrne of the Talking Heads.
I loved his, freakiness and unusual vocal style.
I just listened to a snipet of "I Zimbra" and will purchase it asap.
I remember a live recorded album they did...but cannot remember the name?
Talking Heads....yeah thumbs up!

you're probably thinking of 'stop making sense', which was also a great concert movie...though if you wanna really hear some funky stuff, get their OTHER live album, which is called 'the name of this band is talking heads'. both are great live albums, but 'the name of this band' is more raw and funky.

Great party song! One of their funkiest numbers, and (as Anx said), Tina's tearing up the bass on this one. The percussion is amazing on this one, and the keyboard break in the middle is fun. Taken from one of their best albums.
