Lets see now class of 79 so much the rocker back then. Talking Heads burned up the airwaves. Was not much a an album collector back then. Talking Heads had some really good hits which I remember the words to well. This cd has them all and if it is missing any I'm not missing it. I put on and get my dose and then find another cd for my enjoyment. Not thinking this band had the kind of music that you needed the whole album to have an experince. Some like Floyd and Zep and Eagles to me did. However it was and still is a great party music band and all most all the songs on here are ones that play over in my younger mind.
I had looked to find a compilation CD that included all my favorite Talking Heads songs. I especially wanted it to feature the song "Stay Up Late" - this was the one compilation CD I found that contained that song. I found several concert versions of songs on this CD where I might rather have had the original studio versions. That was the only possible drawback. All in all, I really enjoyed this CD, and plan to listen to it for years to come!
I bought the Talking Heads cd "Sand in the Vaseline " to catch up with the band that I grew up loving. 18 great songs. I probably still have every album in vinyl somewhere in the basement. A good buy.

You can't go wrong with this double CD set. Greatest hits from the 70s and 80s. The Talking Heads were ahead of their time and this collection is a must for any fan! Highly recommend!

No classic rock / new wave (?) collection would be complete without the Talking Heads. The 1-cd greatest hits collection is very good, but u need at least 2 cd's full of their best work to really get the full flavor & variety. This is excellent & highly recommended, even if u don't already know if u like them.
