Always liked his brief round-the-horn with Talking Heads, from early '79. (P.S.: You were right, Tina.)

RIP Dick.

If you lived in a small town pre-mtv, your exposure to new wave acts was incredibly limited. American Bandstand was a great place (actually, maybe the ONLY place) to see lots of them...especially if your parents were jerks who didn't let you stay up to watch SNL on Saturday nights!!!
