	The Game of the Century - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Donald Byrne (1930– 1976), by the time of this game, had already obtained first place in the 1953 US Open Championship, and would later represent the United States in three Olympiads (1962, 1964, and 1968).
		Byrne takes Fischer's offered queen, which leads to a massive loss of material, but other moves are no better.
		Byrne has the only remaining queen, but this will not be enough, particularly because it is now poorly placed.

		Naked '88 was the first album by Talking Heads under a new EMI contract and their last album with Byrne, though nobody knew it then: Byrne refused to 'leave' the band and also refused to record with them; EMI sued them for breach of contract.
		Byrne released Brazilian-flavoured Rei Momo '89 on his own Luaka Bop/Sire label (as well as compilations of stuff he liked, such as Cuban Classics), to Luaka Bop/WB for The Forest '91, Uh-Oh '92 (with Hendryx on three tracks) and David Byrne '94, having finally announced the end of Talking Heads late '91.
		Byrne's cerebral frigid-soul Feelings came out '97 on WB: he had been the first to mix pop with a cocktail of exotic influences, but now seemed to be mellowing, his bandwaggon slowing down.

		Byrne accepted, and the draw stood, because Reshevsky hadn't claimed the flag-fall before the game ended.

	Dana Gioia Online - Anthony Burgess
		Completed shortly before his death in 1993, Byrne demonstrates that not only was Burgess's artistry undiminished at the end but it was still growing.
		Instead, Byrne marries the novelistic virtues of energetic narrative and social observation with "old-fashioned rhyme." The result is a tangy style that combines the author's earthy sensibility with the compression and evocative musicality of formal verse.
		If Byrne is a novel built in layers, no one familiar with Burgess's life and career can fail to recognize that one layer is autobiographical.
