* SpecialGuest: The band's debut album features avant-garde guitarist and prior Music/TalkingHeads collaborator Adrian Belew on guitar, even co-writing some of the songs. Unfortunately, most of his solos were wiped because the engineer disliked them, and according to Belew, Frantz & Weymouth ghosted him when he asked for writing credits. Belew would put the incident behind him and go on to lead the revived Music/KingCrimson right after the recording sessions wrapped up. This might seem a bit hypocritical given that Frantz and Weymouth repeatedly accused David Byrne of claiming sole credit for Music/TalkingHeads songs they wrote together and promising to correct the credits on future pressings of albums.
