I`ve been listening to my early Talking Heads albums again recently and its still amazes me just how ahead of their time that band actually were. In fact the period 1977 to 1980 threw up a whole host of bands the pushed musical boundries.

Red Krayola were great, I`m not a huge fan of Velvet Underground as you know, But the White Light/White Heat album must surely rank as the single biggest influence on the late 70s new-wave and post-punk movements.
