It'sthe summer of 1979. A fifteen-year-old boy listens to WNEW on the radioin his bedroom in Brooklyn. A monotone voice (it's the singer's)announces into dead air in between songs "The Talking Heads have a newalbum, it's called Fear of Music" - and everything spins outward fromthat one moment.Jonathan Lethem treatsFear of Music(the third album by the Talking Heads, and the first produced by BrianEno) as a masterpiece - edgy, paranoid, funky, addictive, rhythmic,repetitive, spooky and fun. He scratches obsessively at the album'ssongs, guitars, rhythms, lyrics, packaging, downtown origins, andlegacy, showing how Fear of Music hints at the directions (positive andnegative) the band would take in the future. Lethem transports us againto the New York City of another time - tackling one of his greatadolescent obsessions and illuminating the ways in which we fall in andout of love with works of art.
