NAKED

Let me first say that I am glad to finally see Talking Heads here on this site. I'm not sure what kind of Prog they are, though- New Wave Prog? Dance Prog? Hip Prog? Whatever... Because I listened to this album recently I will review it first of all the Heads records. It is not even close to being their best, though. It just doesn't have the great vibe that much of their work does. Going through the motions, (as another reviewer stated), may describe this. Only the first 2 tracks "Blind" and "Mr Jones" ever really do anything for me. The rest has nothing that leaps out as outstanding, just average. This was the end of a great band. If you really want to hear Talking Heads at their best I would recommend any of their first 4 albums or TRUE STORIES. And, of course, STOP MAKING SENSE, a truely awesome live set. 2 stars for Naked.
