| Talking Heads – Drugs Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I attended a lecture Eno gave in Davis, CA years and years ago. He talked about how, after having recorded a bunch of instrumentation for this song, during mixing they decided to try removing things. So, for example, they'd take out three snare hits and leave the fourth. He said it was really difficult taking away stuff after having gone through the effort of putting it on tape. He played a clip of the original, comparatively busy arrangement, then played what they release; the difference was really impressive. | |
