More Songs About Buildings and Food is the 1978 second album from Talking Heads, presented on CD, and the first of their landmark collaborations with Brian Eno.
Recorded in the Bahamas, the album found the New York band tightening its nervy art-punk into something groovier and more danceable. Eno's production added space and subtle studio texture, and the rhythm section of Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz moved closer to funk without losing the band's angular edge.
Take Me to the River, their slowed-down cover of Al Green, became the breakthrough, all hypnotic bass and David Byrne's tense, yearning vocal. Thank You for Sending Me an Angel opens the record at a gallop, while Found a Job is a sly, funny song about a couple who fix their relationship by making their own TV shows. The Big Country closes things with a wry look at America from an aeroplane window.
Byrne's lyrics are observational, deadpan and quietly anxious, and the band's interlocking parts already hint at the polyrhythmic adventures to come on Fear of Music and Remain in Light.
A sharp, playful record that captures Talking Heads at the very moment they were becoming truly great, and one that rewards every return visit.
