Talking Heads influence
Talking Heads have been cited as an influence by a large number of artists since the 70s. Even before they had major mainstream success in the MTV era of music videos, popular artists like David Bowie and Paul McCartney had become fans of the band, with their albums Lodger (1979) and McCartney II (1980) containing Talking Heads influence. Talking Heads are especially common as an influence among post-punk, alt rock, and indie rock artists since the 90s.
