Description: Few rock bands have pursued such an idiosyncratic path or possessed such uncompromising brilliance as Talking Heads. The group's garage-band genesis, art-school background, witty invention, and musical unorthodoxy produced exhilarating albums, videos, and one of the greatest live rock-band films of all time, Stop Making Sense. As Talking Heads gained in popularity, David Byrne became the prototypical "cool nerd", pushing them into new creative areas, eventually collaborating with Brian Eno, incorporating African polyrhythms and "found" voices into their songs. Behind the scenes, though, the band's success was marred by a deep schism between Byrne and the only female member of the band, Tina Weymouth.

Full of rich drama and colorful characters, and based on new interviews including all four original members, This Must Be the Place showcases one of the best and most influential rock bands of our time and their odyssey through a volatile period of American cultural history.
