Talking Heads’ 1984 concert film Stop Making Sense is a classic — arguably the pinnacle of what singer/songwriter David Byrne accomplished with the genre-defying band throughout its time together. It’s the sort of record, and band, that warrants appreciation and attention even decades after its members went their separate ways.

As the years roll along, it’s important for parents to instill in their children an appreciation of the classics and of the music they grew up listening to and enjoying, as means of continuing the legacy these musical acts created. The children are the future, after all, so why not tell them all about David Byrne and Talking Heads? Seems like a great idea to us.
