About this listen
Listeners also enjoyed...
It’s comprehensive, opinionated, and allows ample space to more broadly contextualise the band’s career.
By the conclusion I felt I’d gained a thorough understanding of the four band members, the group dynamics, and why David Byrne’s autism makes him a great artist but a hard person to be in a band with.
I cannot imagine there will be a better book about this fascinating band who went from art school informed punk rock origins to global stardom.
The book was written without the participation of any of the band members which might be an issue for some readers. Personally I found it a strength.
This is an expansive and authoritative portrait of a game changing group that sent me straight back to the music, comparing JG’s reactions with my own.
