Title: If you enjoy "New Wave" this is for you.
Review: I have very eclectic music tastes from doo-wop, psychedelic to 50s, 60s classic country. Talking Heads have got to be one of the best "new wave" groups of their era. This selection covers most of the noted ghoulish vocals of front man, David Byrne. Happy I purchased it!

Title: a power house of talking heads classics
Review: this is a great cd full of talking heads classics. some of my faves are: "and she was"; "once in a lifetime"; "take me to the river"; and, "wild, wild life." the only song that i wish they would have included on this cd is the song "stay up late." if you want that song then you have to purchase the talking heads cd entitled "little creatures." in any event, I still say this is a great cd. purchase and enjoy!!

Title: Odd choice of songs
Review: EMI must only have rights to the Heads last 3 albums (plus a few songs from Stop Making Sense), which happen to be their worst 3 albums. Still a good CD regardless.

Title: Pretty good but not "essential"
Review: This is a nice collection of some good Talking Heads tracks, but certainly not “essential.” The fact that it's missing “Burning Down the House” and “Girlfriend Is Better” while including “Totally Nude” and “Hey Now” suggests that this is a very subjective selection. In fact, there's nothing at all from their two of their best and most revolutionary albums—“Fear of Music” and “Speaking in Tongues.”By almost any definition, “The Best of Talking Heads” and “Stop Making Sense” offer far better representations of the Heads' most essential output, while the most comprehensive collection (to date) is “Sand in the Vaseline.” Nonetheless, this CD will certainly make for some great listening. Pretty much every album by the Talking Heads makes great listening, since they were one of the greatest bands of the twentieth century.

Review: Son los mejores temas, pero esperaba que tuvieran más ritmo, los he encontrado un poco lentos.
