FROM MY OWN PERSONAL COLLECTION

• The Name of This Band Is Talking Heads is a double live album by Talking Heads, originally released in 1982.
• The first album featured the original quartet in recordings from 1977 and 1979, and the second album the expanded ten-piece lineup that toured in 1980 and 1981.
• The album contains live versions of songs that appear on Talking Heads: 77, More Songs About Buildings and Food, Fear of Music, and Remain in Light.

• The title of the album is a reference both to the group's preference for having no expressed definite article within the band name (as opposed to "The Talking Heads") and to David Byrne's minimalist introductions to songs.
• The album opens with one such introduction: "The name of this song is New Feeling. That's what it's about."
