Talking Heads are like marmite - ie provoke love or hate with no in between. I'm a big fan of their earlier material, talking of which...
First up are the demo's they cut for CBS in 1975. These remained shelved, and it was not until 1977 that the band signed to Sire Records, who released their debut long player "
Talking Heads 77". Some later well known tracks appear on here, and this is the full & complete 15 track demo file - I have seen several over the years with only several of these included.
A well-booted 1977 gig from The
Paradiso, Amsterdam is next, followed by another 1977 live outing, this time from the
Jabberwocky, Syracuse, 26/1/77.
