Talking Heads

Talking Heads was one of the founders of the original new wave sound in the seventies along with Devo and The B-52's. Their new weird style made them greatly popular and set the standard for eighties pop culture. Their album Radio Head was the inspiration for the name of the band Radiohead. A line in their song Psycho Killer was the inspiration for the name of the band Husker Du. They were inducted their first year of eligibility, an obvious choice. It is a shame that the other two have not been inducted to this date. They greatly influenced indie band Franz Ferdinand.
