When legendary reggae producer Lee “Scratch” Perry failed to show up for the scheduled recording sessions in the Bahamas, Chris Blackwell gave the OK for Chris and Tina to produce the album themselves. Tom Tom Club's first single was “Wordy Rappinghood,”. It went to the top of the charts in 17 countries..
The group’s second single was “Genius of Love.” Released in the UK before North America, the track was bubbling up in the underground with dozens of unsolicited remixes and versions - soon earning the Tom Tom Club debut a Gold album. Mariah Carey hit #1 with “Fantasy,” her version of “Genius of Love” featuring Ol’ Dirty Bastard. “Genius of Love” continues to be frequently sampled by artists including Tupac Shakur and many others.
Frantz and Weymouth were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Talking Heads received a GRAMMY Lifetime Achievement Award and continue to record music.
