David Byrne, Canongate ($50)

With a robust intelligence, David Byrne explores music and how every aspect of its sound and construction has an emotional impact right up to how it’s distributed, marketed and listened to. Byrne concentrates on his own experiences from his work with Talking Heads and Brian Eno, and his journeys to wherever music exists from Wagnerian opera houses to African villages.
