280. Zan Rowe on Talking Heads 'More Songs About Buildings and Food' (1978)

This week I talk to Queen of Australian radio Zan Rowe about Talking Heads 'More Songs About Buildings and Food'. We chat about David Byrne's outsider appeal, the new wave funk sound that defined Talking Heads, the album's dystopian predictions and capitalist lyrics, producer Brian Eno's contribution to the album and delve into his Oblique Strategies cards. Zan tells us about the first time she met David Byrne, his wonderful sense of curiosity and we both commiserate over missing his last tour.
