Once In A Lifetime: The Best Of Talking Heads condenses one of the smartest bands of the new wave era onto a single CD, 14 tracks that trace their path from art-school punk to global pop.
First released in 1992, as the band's story was drawing to a close, the collection runs from their jittery 1977 debut to their final studio album and beyond. It works as a concise map of how David Byrne, Tina Weymouth, Chris Frantz and Jerry Harrison kept reinventing themselves without ever losing their nervous, curious edge.
"Psycho Killer" still bristles with tension, and their cover of Al Green's "Take Me To The River" shows how naturally they could bend soul music into their own shape. The title track, made with Brian Eno, rides a hypnotic, interlocking groove beneath Byrne's famous existential questions about how he got here.
Later highlights include "Burning Down The House", the band's biggest American hit, alongside the warm, wistful "This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody)" and live versions from the Stop Making Sense era. "Road To Nowhere" and "(Nothing But) Flowers" show their gift for a sunny melody with a sly twist.
For anyone wanting the essentials in one place, it is a sharp, satisfying listen from start to finish, and a perfect gateway into the albums.
