About this listen

The Sunday Times best seller.

Chris Frantz's memoir tells the story of his life with Talking Heads, Tom Tom Club and his life-long love affair with Tina Weymouth. He remembers the early performances at CBGB alongside the Ramones, Patti Smith, Television and Blondie and recording the game changing albums, Talking Heads '77, More Songs About Buildings And Food, Fear Of Music, and Remain In Light. During a break from Talking Heads, Chris and Tina formed Tom Tom Club; in the process creating a hybrid of funk, disco, pop and electro that would have a huge impact on the club scene around the world.

Warm and candid, funny and heartfelt, Remain in Love charts the rise of a band that began as a dream and culminated with their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and reveals the once-in-a-lifetime love story and creative partnership between Chris and Tina, one of the greatest rhythm sections of all time.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Narration was a bit plodding but otherwise a very thorough and interesting story about his life in music

Perfect

If you are a fan of Talking Heads, TTC, David Byrne or the New York Nu Wave, this is a fantastic book. Also gives best insight into Chris Blackwell’s Compass Point studios at its most prolific period

Essential

The music of Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club are big parts of the story, but the book is about so much more. Central to Chris Frantz is his love for Tina Weymouth, followed by their family, friends and music. A very rewarding read.

A great story well told and well titled

Very enjoyable+ nostolgic book amiably narrated by Chris ,Full of hilarious anecdotes and fascinating details of the punk/ post punk NY scene. My main takeaway is what great life Chris has had and (because he seens such a good guy) although envious I don't begrudge him it ,

One of the best music bios i have read
