    Listen to Robbie's voice in, say Out Of The Blue or Broken Arrow or It Is A Good Day To Die & you all will agree how effective, even impressive his voice can be in a very limited selection of songs. But his problem after quitting The Band is that he had to sing his solo stuff himself now. You can't make an album full of Broken Arrows...

    Knocked off work and went fishing, which is a real delight here in Massachsusetts where it's rainy and cold and presently smalley-less. What I've done to get away from "The Stomp Dance!" Still, both "Redboy" and the Teletubbies survived the afternoon intact. Seriously, it seems to me that what made Robbie's work with the Band so phenomenal can still be heard in his some of his solo work--I'm thinking of "Robbie Robertson" in particular, but even on "Redboy" and "Music for Native Americans," it's there. Some would say in a diluted form, others might use the term "bastardized." I often wonder, myself, how to go about "appreciating" it. Do we forget that he was in the Band and try to listen to it on its own terms, or....? Obviously, he's going to come up short if we're looking for the Band Redux, if only because Robbie is just one talented guy rather than a talented guy with the energies of 4 other very talented guys to draw on. I remember a debate a while back about the relative stupidity of the song "Making a Noise," but if there was ever a song where Mr. Robertson could have benefitted from his former brothers' input, try "Making a Noise" or even "Hell's Half Acre." It's not that the music is bad--I suspect that there's a limit to how badly he could write if he tried--but that it's slick without that sort of heartfelt substance that Danko, Helm, and Manuel seemed to bring to everything they sa

    About this ebook

    Two iconic bands. An unforgettable life.

    One of the most dynamic groups of the ‘70s and ‘80s, Talking Heads, founded by drummer Chris Frantz, his girlfriend Tina Weymouth, and lead singer David Byrne, burst onto the music scene, playing at CBGBs, touring Europe with the Ramones, and creating hits like “Psycho Killer” and “Burning Down the House” that captured the post-baby boom generation’s intense, affectless style.

    In Remain in Love, Frantz writes about the beginnings of Talking Heads—their days as art students in Providence, moving to the sparse Chrystie Street loft Frantz, Weymouth, and Byrne shared where the music that defined an era was written. With never-before-seen photos and immersive vivid detail, Frantz describes life on tour, down to the meals eaten and the clothes worn—and reveals the mechanics of a long and complicated working relationship with a mercurial frontman.

    At the heart of Remain in Love is Frantz’s love for Weymouth: their once-in-a-lifetime connection as lovers, musicians, and bandmates, and how their creativity surged with the creation of their own band Tom Tom Club, bringing a fresh Afro-Caribbean beat to hits like “Genius of Love.”

    Studded with memorable places and names from the era—Grace Jones, Andy Warhol, Stephen Sprouse, Lou Reed, Brian Eno, and Debbie Harry among them—Remain in Love is a frank and open memoir of an emblematic life in music and in love.

    Chris Frantz is a musician, producer, and the drummer for the Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club, which he co-founded with wife and Talking Heads bassist Tina Weymouth. Frantz is a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member and hosts his own radio show called "Chris Frantz the Talking Head" on WPKN.
