...search for it in the bush, like a musical Stanley and Livingston, will largely be determined by the reaction to this album and how well they can duplicate the funk/permanent wave fusion in concert. Byrne was able to toss aside his carefree/paranoid psycho image in one album and can abandon this turn just as easily. What will the '81 Talking Heads approach be: guitars, synthesizers or David Byrne beating out a polyrhythm on a hollowed...
...class of sensitive thinkers--Shelley's "unacknowledged legislators of the world"--in the face of the challenge of unflinching mandarin elites. Walzer, thus, justifies his own commitment to radical principles as the ground work for his passive vision of a just society.

What the University needs is a proven, highly profitable, depression-proof, low-technology business to act as a counterweight to its genetic engineering operation. This is standard practice for any multi-national corporation. May I respectfully suggest that an ideal business...
...pushed into the role of being "macho" when society encourages women not only to abandon their independence but to seek security from men. Man must be stable, independent, and above all, strong-physically and mentally. The media exploits and reinforces that image--in cigarette and designer jean advertisements, TV soap operas, and James Bond movies...
