Talking Heads (ca. 1980)

You don't get much cooler than this. But, then again, you also don't get much dorkier than this.

And, that was the magic.

Adrian Belew looks like the substitute teacher at a Montessori school
Tina Weymouth is about to participate in a botched heist in a French New Wave movie.

A few years earlier, Jerry played keyboards in another pretty good band from New England.

Before their drummer joined The Cars.

Brady's Bits:

In the late 80s, I wrote a letter to Jonathan Richman, and he totally wrote me back.

I will always be grateful for this kindness.

@hotdogsladies in the 90s when i first signed up for BMG i ordered 12 CDs of (various grunge and pop and pop-punk music) and instead of the Green Day disc i had selected, i received Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers. i now realize this was probably a frustrated BMG employee who was trying to teach me something, and i very much appreciate it now.

@hotdogsladies have seen this show? Seems it would be “right in your wheelhouse” (apologies if you were already aware)

@hotdogsladies Jerry Harrison used to be Bernadette Peters?
