Tom Tom Club – Close to the Bone (1983) Vinyl LP
The Talking Heads’ rhythm section side project hit their stride with Close to the Bone (1983) — a groove-heavy, funk-infused record that doubles down on the playful energy of their debut while pushing deeper into Afrobeat and Caribbean influences. Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth at their most infectious. An essential piece of early-‘80s new wave and dance-rock history.
