A Talking Head Talks About His Tell-All Memoir

from Write About Now

The Talking Heads are talking again. Forty years after the release of their classic concert film "Stop Making Sense," the movie and the band are back on the big stage—same as it ever was, or maybe even better. A remastered, 4k version of the movie was released in September, and the band is back on tour burning down the house. On this episode, host Jon Small revisits his interview with the band's co-founder and drummer, Chris Frantz, who wrote a memoir about his once-in-a lifetime experience with the band in 2020. Frantz didn't have the nicest things to say about the band's lead singer David Byrne, but apparently they're back on talking terms — and that's great news because they're one of the best bands of the 1980s.
