Talking Heads : Remain in Light

 

Genre: New Wave

Dates: 1980

The three previous records by this New York unit proved that the "new wave" brand—and arty inclinations—needn't be the kiss of death. Under the sway of authentic African music (and a balding technophile named Brian Eno), they pushed their music into uncharted territory with this record—perhaps the funkiest ever made by white people at that time in history.
