David Byrne's Oscar was the final testament to the genius of the Talking Heads. I love these guys!

I've heard several covers of this Al Green tune by different artists, but I think this is my favorite.

@ davidbowiegirl - i agree that the version on 'the name of this band is...' is superb - in my opinion probably one of the best live albums ever recorded
