David Byrne's follow up to Rei Momo, the 1992 LP "Uh-oh" co-incided with the official end of Talking Heads. A new producer helped bring a clean, commercial sound to David's oddball instrumentation and left of center lyrics. While the songs were still like children to him, the overall album needed to walk the line of appealing to his previous Talking Heads audience while also showing that he wasn't taking himself too seriously and didn't mind whether you liked it or not.

Tracks:
Now I'm your mom
Girls on my mind
Something ain't right
She's mad
Hanging upside down
A walk in the dark
Twistin' in the wind
The Cowboy Mambo (Hey lookit me now)
Monkey Man
A million miles away
Tiny Town
Somebody

For Mikey, the last few years have been a wild ride to say the least. When the opportunity of a lifetime presented itself and his band joined Jerry Harrison and Adrian Belew to tour for the 40th anniversary of Remain In Light it should have been a high point of his career. Instead, it triggered a tailspin that saw his band disintegrate and strained the relationships with the bandmates and collaborators that had become like family. Mikey's story goes far beyond music, and his continued success is a testament to his character, commitment to his craft, and belief in the potential for healing that comes with performing music you love with people you love even more.

We've finally reached the first pure David Byrne solo album, no theatre soundtrack or main collaborators, David was free to do whatever he wanted and this was it. I hope this gives everyone an insight into not just the album, but a glimpse at David's genuine passion for this music, which critics at the time labelled as passion-less and uninspired. My goal, as always, is to prove that it's anything but!

Tracklist:
Independence Day
Make Believe Mambo
The call of the wild
Dirty Old Town
The Rose Tattoo
Loco de Amor
The Dream Police
Don't want to be part of your world
Marching through the wilderness
Good and Evil
Lie to me
Office Cowboy
Women vs Men
Carnival Eyes
I know sometimes a man is wrong
Live Cover: Todo Cambia
