Talking Heads- Little Creatures 40th- David Byrne, Jerry Harrison

"I think that Talking Heads were one of the first groups who tried not to be about a fantasy that was bigger than life, but tried to be about being strong within a life that was ultimately real."- Jerry Harrison, In the Studio with Mr "American Utopia", David Byrne, for Talking Heads "Little Creatures" 40th anniversary. .

Talking Heads- Take Me to the River- WCOZ, Boston 11-17-77

the first time that I met legendary songwriter/ guitarist the late Teenie Hodges was at a Talking Heads record release party for "Fear of Music"  in Memphis in 1979. Teenie had sought me out to introduce himself, since I had been influential in getting ROCK 103 Memphis to play the Talking Heads version of "Take Me to the River", the soul classic originally co-written and recorded by Memphis legend Al Green.
