Speaking In Tongues

I've been reading the book, "Hoop" by Brian Doyle. Short essays on just about every angle and aspect of basketball. In one he writes about using the song, "This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody)" by The Talking Heads as pregame warm up music. Of course I had to go and check it out. All leading to seeking out their "Speaking In Tongues" album. A little embarrassed that I didn't have this record in my collection. Anyway, I do now. From 1983. My vinyl record collection just became a whole lot cooler.
