Book Musik 027 - "Remain in Love" by Chris Frantz

Tosh and Kimley discuss “Remain in Love: Talking Heads, Tom Tom
Club, Tina” by Chris Frantz. Frantz is a founding member of Talking
Heads and as the drummer he was half of the rhythm section along
with his wife Tina Weymouth on bass. They were at the epicenter of
the infamous CBGB scene in 1970s New York along with The Ramones,
Television, Blondie, and Patti Smith to name just a few. They broke
fresh creative ground on what a rock band could be - quirky, geeky,
arty, possibly too smart for their own good and oddly clean-cut but
with a twist. Lester Bangs famously said they were so uncool that
they were cool. Frantz adds his firsthand perspective on a time in
rock ‘n’ roll history of which we can never get enough.
