Talking Heads luminary David Byrne recently spoke with Radiohead‘s Thom Yorke for Wired. The two discuss the value of music and in particular Radiohead’s much talked about online distribution of In Rainbows. From Wired’s introduction:
…the truth is that Radiohead didn’t intend In Rainbows to start a revolution. The experiment simply proves there is plenty of room for innovation in the music business β this is just one of many new paths. Wired asked David Byrne β a legendary innovator himself and the man who wrote the Talking Heads song “Radio Head” from which the group takes its name β to talk with Yorke about the In Rainbows distribution strategy and what others can learn from the experience.
