We Are Not Saved

Remain in Love: Talking Heads, Tom Tom Club, Tina By: Chris Frantz Published: 2022 208 Pages Briefly, what is this book about? The life and musical career of Chris Frantz and his wife Tina Weymouth. With particular attention paid to his antagonistic relationship with David Byrne, the front man for Talking Heads, a band they were both members of.   What's the author's angle? Frantz seems to be going for three things here. First it’s an ode to his wife. Second it lays out his side of the fight between him and Byrne. Finally it’s a snapshot into the origin of punk in the late 70s. Who should read this book? If you’re a huge Talking Heads fan. Or if you really want a behind the scenes look at what it was like to be in a band in the late 70s. Otherwise I would skip it.  Specific thoughts: The fact that he’s stayed married for all these years counts for a lot.
