A revealing inside account of the highs and lows of a band who looked and sounded like nobody else — OLIVIA LAING, Guardian
Chris Frantz's memoir tells the story of his life with Talking Heads, Tom Tom Club, and his life-long love affair with Tina Weymouth. He remembers the early performances at CBGB alongside the Ramones, Patti Smith, Television, and Blondie, as well as recording the game-changing albums, Talking Heads '77, More Songs About Buildings And Food, Fear Of Music, and Remain In Light.
During a break from Talking Heads, Chris and Tina formed Tom Tom Club, in the process creating a hybrid of funk, disco, pop, and electro that would have a huge impact on the club scene around the world.
Warm and candid, funny and heartfelt, Remain in Love charts the rise of a band that began as a dream and culminated with their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It reveals the once-in-a-lifetime love story and creative partnership between Chris and Tina, one of the greatest rhythm sections of all time.
