	David Byrne - Feelings (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Ever since David Byrne left the wildly successful band Talking Heads in the late '80's, he has produced a number of solo efforts that were dominated with the Latin-flavored sounds of South America (He actually started dabbling with these sounds on the Heads 1988 release, Naked).
		On David Byrne's latest release, Feelings, he has taken stock in what he has been doing and expanded and built upon his past to come up with a clever album full of his signature quirky lyrics and vocals along with some fresh instrumental juxtapositions.
		Byrne has produced a fun, eclectic collection of songs on Feelings that is reminiscent of his former band (if not in sound, at least in the ability to experiment with new sounds and ideas).

	BBC - BBC Four Music - David Byrne
		David Byrne is primarily known as the co-founder of Talking Heads (1976-88).
		Byrne collaborated with avant-garde theatre director Robert Wilson on The Forest in 1989, composing an orchestral score with mostly wordless vocals.
		Byrne's record label Luaka Bop, which was founded in 1988, has evolved from a label specialising in "world music" compilations to one with emerging acts such as Cornershop, Geggy Tah, Susana Baca, Zap Mama and a host of Alternalatino bands such as Bloque, Los Amigos Invisibles and King Chango.

	CNN - David Byrne, action figure - September 12, 1997
		HOLLYWOOD (CNN) -- The former frontman for the Talking Heads is on tour with a new release, "Feelings." David Byrne, always known for his offbeat style, has also broken out a new image -- a plastic, injection-molded one, which he has aptly dubbed the David Byrne Action Figure.
		Byrne says recording "Feelings" was much more relaxing than usual for him, as it was mostly recorded at his and his producer's home studios, chosen over big, impersonal professional facilities.
		Byrne refuses to discuss that band's current activities, but does say he left because he didn't like where they were headed.

		Byrne's writing in Strange Ritual is similarly consistent with the work he produced with the Talking Heads (and as a solo recording artist).
		Travel-diary entries suggest, in retrospect, Byrne's influence on Generation X novelist Douglas Coupland, as much for the comic aridity of the language as for the fascination with salvation and consumerism.
		Byrne's photos present: stocked supermarket shelves in L.A., piles of plastic Buddhas outside a temple in South India, the colorful contents of a Japanese vending machine, a Portuguese man's crucifix collection.

	Metroactive Music \| David Byrne
		BYRNE'S POSE--the one upon which the movie True Stories is essentially based--is that of a very detached sort of alien observing American culture, and this is an attitude which even in this day and age of irony-overload can be quite taxing to the observed.
		Moreover, Byrne has always represented himself as a bit of a nervous case, and the result is that he makes those around him nervous.
		Of course, in a way, Byrne himself was the first to notice this trend: as far back as 1981, he too began drawing on diverse musical sources--particularly the indigenous rhythms of Brazil, Japan and Africa.

		The idea, in Byrne's phrase, was to see if this might "give the objects life and a sense of power." Accordingly, they presented an end table wearing underpants, a clock in a sombrero, a radio in a bikini.
		Partly spurred by a concert in Madrid that Byrne thought was "all wrong rhythmically and sonically, but with a great vibe," he was driven to combine the romance of orchestral music with percussive forms.
		Byrne was once called "the Typhoid Mary of the irony epidemic," but that's a fundamental misreading of him.

	David Byrne really does love PowerPoint
		Byrne, best known as the front man for the Talking Heads, proceeded to do exactly what he said he would.
		Byrne discovered the software a few years ago and, excited by how easy it was to integrate visuals and music, began to create art pieces with it.
		As Byrne signed copies of his books after fielding (and bunting most) questions from the audience, PowerPoint creators Bob Gaskins and Dennis Austin and their wives were still chuckling good-naturedly over the performance.

		David Byrne is a man who needs absolutely no introduction.
		In an attempt to capture the latent energy of the filmmaker's, Trocchi's, and his own homeland, David Byrne decided to use Scottish musicians instead of the New Yorkers he would have normally used.
		David Byrne appears to have had a well-planned idea of what he wanted, because even when the music is subtle and minimal, it is always heading somewhere.

	Chico Performance-- David Byrne PR
		But for Grown Backwards Byrne began carrying a little micro-cassette recorder with him in his backpack and if a tune popped into his head he would hum it, wordlessly, into the mic, wherever he was.
		Byrne purposely decided to keep the same approach on his tour, integrating strings and other arranged instruments as part of the band.
		Byrne had heard some opera before, and realized how "Felice" was one of those instantly memorable arias, a three-minute piece which could be one of the ancestors of Western pop songs.

	Guardian Unlimited \| The Guardian \| Interview with David Byrne
		David Byrne, a man who runs on nervous energy, is still what American critics like to call herky jerky.
		Byrne's staccato delivery and jittery dancing became their onstage fulcrum, yet with hindsight this cripplingly shy man believes that his debilitating personal insecurity was both his curse and blessing.
		Byrne is loath to dwell on Talking Heads, although he has co-operated with an upcoming authorised band biography, This Must be the Place by David Bowman.

	Former Talking Head keeps going forward
		Byrne seems fulfilled as an artist -- proud of the Talking Heads legacy, his artwork, his record label that has given voice in the United States to an array of musicians from around the world, especially Brazil.
		Byrne then made a reference tape of music that he felt achieved a similar effect: tunes by Bjork, Brazilian singer Caetano Veloso, the O'Jays, Isaac Hayes' "Theme From Shaft." He wrote new songs on his guitar, programmed grooves and used a keyboard sequencer to make loops and fake string parts.
		Byrne takes a breath and responds: "To be honest, it's hard to seriously consider that after various people have been criticizing you, bad- mouthing you, writing you nasty letters for years.

		On 'in the Future" David Byrne recites a long, often confusing and whimsical, list of what he thought the future was to be like.
		Byrne's photographs and written witticisms are simply presented as a collection of unrelated images: crucifixes, graffiti, duplex housing, and Colgate boxes.
		What Byrne is able to accomplisk with this collection is to show his aptitude for finding some insight in the mundane.

	David Byrne: Look into the Eyeball - PopMatters Music Review
		Look into the Eyeball's cover, on the other hand, shows Byrne's face in much the same angle as Feelings, except that he is decisively human-his hair is graying, his skin is wrinkled, and his face has the solemn calm of wisdom.
		Byrne's voice conveys that of the wide-eyed child, viewing the world free from preconceptions or prejudices.
		As Byrne writes on his website, "I somehow imagine that a real revolution is won by seduction, by winning over not just the mind, but the body and the senses as well.

	Off the Record \| David Byrne (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		David Byrne stopped making sense a long time ago, but he’s never abandoned his search for deeper meanings in the music of other cultures, or his mission to open American ears to those sounds.
		Even with Talking Heads, Byrne came through with his best stuff when he stopped trying to make pan-cultural sense of the worlds of music he’d discovered and just let it all flow into deceptively simple pop tunes.
		Look into the Eyeball, Byrne’s sixth solo outing since the demise of Talking Heads, is looser, poppier, and more upbeat than any of the others.

	David Byrne / June 21, 2004 / Chicago (Navy Pier Skyline Stage)
		David Byrne has spent his career first inventing forms of music as the front man for the seminal Talking Heads and then reinventing it again and again as a solo artist.
		Byrne bopped around the stage, dressed in a stylishly tailored, three-button gray pinstripe body suit.
		Indeed, the 52-year-old Byrne is as animated (as in, cartoon-like in his movements) as ever.

		Although he seems to be trying to mask it, Byrne is still the adrift, schizoid space alien, tentative and ill-at-ease in the presence of and in relation to others, that he was when he started his career, although this anxiety simply isn't producing music quite as exciting.
		David "the geek" Byrne has got to be one of the weakest singer/songwriters to ever set foot in the dangerous and gritty world of rock + roll.
		Byrne is in often exceptional voice on the recording, a description of his singing that would have been unlikely back in the day.

	David Byrne: Lead Us Not into Temptation: Pitchfork Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		To say Byrne is up to the task doesn't do him justice; Temptation is strong enough to stand with any of Byrne's other solo work, that rare film score that works beautifully as an entirely separate record.
		Byrne reportedly employed Cage-ian techniques-- such as dictating which notes could be played, but not when-- to develop the majority of these pieces.
		Byrne's guitar playing throughout the album is masterfully restrained, and it's enough to make you wonder why more people don't praise him for his playing.

		His disappearance is noticeable; Byrne had been cutting quite a swath through the elite group, with his red and white striped shirt, shock of graying hair and two-tone saddle shoes.
		Byrne is not the first musician to lecture here; jazz trombonist George Lewis spoke about computer music and how improvisational jazz relates to the concept of noise in outer space.
		Byrne is most interesting when he goes off on flights of fancy that illustrate why he is called the Renaissance man of rock.
