Remain in the Light (CD)
The musical transition that seemed to have just begun with "Fear of Music" came to fruition on Talking Heads' fourth album, "Remain in Light." "I Zimbra" and "Life During Wartime" from the earlier album served as the blueprints for a disc on which the group explored African polyrhythms on a series of driving groove tracks, over which David Byrne chanted and sang his typically disconnected lyrics. Even without a single, "Remain in Light" was a hit, indicating that Talking Heads were connecting with an audience ready to follow their musical evolution, and the album was so inventive and influential, it was no wonder. As it turned out, however, it marked the end of one aspect of the group's development and their last new music for three years.
