  • Tom Tom Club's Christmas Stocking Stuffers
    2002 - Tom Tom Club's Christmas Stocking Stuffers Interview with ex-Talking Head and Tom Tom Club's Chris FrantzDec. 15, 2002 Just in time for the holiday season ex-Talking Heads turned Tom Tom Club alumni Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth are filling their fan's Christmas stockings with two new downloadable holiday chestnuts from their website, http://www.tomtomclub.net . Both Chris and Tina, along with David Byrne and Jerry Harrison were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier this year, and while their work with the Talking Heads is what they may be best known for, the wedded couple have also, for the last twenty years, been busy making their own brand of uninhibited party music with their band Tom Tom Club. Surprisingly, its their own music with the Tom Tom Club, and not the Talking Heads, that has permeated itself into so many different styles of music over the past two decades, as their 1983 hit "Genius of Love" is the most sampled song of all time, with artists such as 2PAC, Ziggy Marley, the X-ecutioners and Mariah Carey either sampling bits or recreating the entire song. Livewire's Tony Bonyata caught up with Chris to talk about the Heads, the impact of Tom Tom Club, as well as their delightful new stocking stuffers. Livewire: I understand that you're giving your fans a couple of early Christmas presents on your web site this season. Chris: Yeah, we are. The first one, which is already posted on the homepage of our site, tomtomclub.com, is a very traditional, beautiful and kind of chilled-out French carol called "Il Est Ne," which is French for "He Is Born." It's very traditional, and I'm sure you'll recognize it when you hear the melody.

  • 1986 - Rock's Renaissance Man
    1986 - Rock's Renaissance Man Written by Time From: Time magazine, October 27, 1986 Got a movie. Got a record. Got some wild, wild life. "Oh," David Byrne said, "you want to see the African fire ants?" It was deep night out on a Texas plain flat as a pan bottom and just about burned through. A recent rain had slaked the land a little but brought forth legions of ants to infest the ground and pester a nearby film set. Exterminators were summoned, ants dispatched, but one actor, arriving late, felt he had missed out on some fun. "Follow me," said Byrne sympathetically, as he grabbed a flashlight and walked into the dark. This is a man whose first great song was called Psycho Killer. A man who is the formative force behind Talking Heads, one of the decade's most formidable bands, a group responsible for the sweetest, strangest, funniest rock to roll over the '70s and nestle into the '80s. A man who should be hanging close to the set, seeing to the details of directing his first feature film, not striking out on some weird nocturnal expedition in search of hymenopterous marauders. He may not resemble the manic murderer in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, but he will never be mistaken for Mark Trail either. Is this a man to follow into the night? No question. It took a while, and a little stumbling, but Byrne found what he was looking for. He stood near a mound of earth and shone his light down and waited.

  • Lester Bangs August 1979
    LESTER BANGS AUGUST 1979 One day someone I love said, “You hit me with your eyes.” When I hear David Byrne’s lyrics, I can imagine him feeling the same thing and saying it in language just oblique enough to turn the pain into percussively lapping waters. Are you afraid of air? Well, why not (if not)? David Byrne is. Do you think heaven is nowhere (is vacuum the obverse of oid’svoid)? David Byrne does. How about the animal kingdom: wouldn’t you say they’re a bunch of smug little disease carriers, setting a perfectly rotten example (them being, after all, our elders on that ole evolutionary totem pole) for us so-called human beings who might be a lot more at least interpersonally better off if we wised up and just told all them li’l critters to take a walk? If stuff like that maltomeals round your noggin, you’re in D. Byrne territory for sure, friends. And why not? These are mutant times, and Talking Heads are the most human of mutant groups (hopelessly perfect cross-fertilization); unlike Devo, they actually look good off TV, on a concert stage (in fact, up till now I’d always bemoaned my feeling that their records didn’t come near the excitement of their live sound). I may never forget the first time I saw them at CBGB’s: though they had gotten Jerry Harrison to swat keyboards by then, they were all still a little ragged (if such a word could ever be applied to such rarefied entities) around the edges.

  • Talking Heads from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Talking Heads From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Background information Origin New York City, New York, United States Genres New wave · post-punk · art pop · funk rock · worldbeat Years active 1975–1991 Labels Sire/Warner Bros., EMI Associated acts Tom Tom Club, The Modern Lovers, Brian Eno Past members David Byrne Chris Frantz Tina Weymouth Jerry Harrison Talking Heads were an American rock band formed in 1975 in New York City and active until 1991. The band comprised David Byrne (lead vocals, guitar), Chris Frantz (drums), Tina Weymouth (bass) and Jerry Harrison (keyboards, guitar). Other musicians also regularly made appearances in concert and on the group's albums. The new wave style of Talking Heads combined elements of punk, art rock, funk, avant-garde, dance, pop, and world music with the neurotic, whimsical stage persona of frontman and songwriter David Byrne. The band made use of various performance and multimedia projects throughout its career. Critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine described Talking Heads as being "one of the most critically acclaimed bands of the '80s, while managing to earn several pop hits." In 2002, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Four of the band's albums appeared on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time and three of their songs ("Psycho Killer", "Life During Wartime", and "Once in a Lifetime") were included among The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll. Talking Heads were also included at #64 on VH1's list of the "100 Greatest Artists of All Time", placed among Rolling Stone 's similar list as well.

  • In Conversation with Chris Frantz and James Prosek
    A Tale of Two Artists: In Conversation With Chris Frantz and James Prosek We had only an hour to hear from these two interesting artists at a live Facebook event with Fairfield University Downtown Bookstore. With over 500 viewers, the time seemed to go by rather quickly. Chris Frantz and James Prosek spoke about how their journeys unfolded as a result of certain mentors, peers, individual talent and being in the right place at the right time. We learned that Chris, cofounder and drummer of Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club, and James, Environmental Artist, have similar stories in that they both found success at a relatively young age, by following their passions. Talking Heads opened for the Ramones at CBGB’s in 1975, when Chris was just 24 years old. The band debuted on the cover of the Village Voice several months later and was offered a cover story with Rolling Stone in 1979, which the band refused and later accepted in 1987. Similarly, James published his first art book with Alfred Knopf at age 22, which impacted the art world and marked the beginning of a prolific career. While Chris’s book is filled with details about his life, gigs and music, James’s book contemplates the connection between language, art and how human beings categorize the natural world. Both stories are a testimony to different creative paths that can unfold by following a calling. If you weren’t able to listen live, you can catch the recording on the event link below, which is also on the Fairfield University Bookstore Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/FairfieldUBookstore/videos/437359054175346/.
