  • Better Sound Alternative Exists

    Amazing performances, but the sound quality just isn't up to par. Treat yourself and grab the Talking Heads 'Live On Tour' album for the same exact show (at the Agora in Cleveland, 12-18-1978) on a way better pressing. I've got both, so I know what I'm talking about. The only thing missing with Live On Tour is side D from this release.

  • Talking Heads Live Excellence

    ohetxsApril 27, 2025United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    Superb pressing indeed. Quite the pleasant surprise. The band's name, Talking Heads, still one of my all-time favorite live albums ever. This one’s a close second for Talking Heads. Mastering is top-notch and the wax is very quiet. Highly recommend.

  • Worldwide Edition Differences

    5 out of 5 stars
    Wanbu-XivApril 16, 2025United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    I just took a look at the runouts of this so-called "worldwide" edition. It was cut by JNH at Sterling and pressed at MRP, which makes it identical to the U.S. release, from what I can tell. The only distinction is that the U.S. version includes some numbers, like #6, which are missing on this one.

  • Talking Heads Gem Found

    TuqeXigoApril 14, 2025United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    This is fantastic, particularly for any Talking Heads enthusiast. I'm thrilled to have found a copy, and after the first listen, it's clear that it's been done really well.

About Talking Heads

Talking Heads, formed in the pulsating heart of New York City in 1975, were a groundbreaking band that left an indelible mark on the music scene. Comprised of the distinctive David Byrne on vocals and guitar, Chris Frantz on drums, Tina Weymouth on bass, and Jerry Harrison on keyboards and guitar, Talking Heads pioneered new wave music by seamlessly blending elements of punk, art rock, funk, and world music. Their unique sound was matched by an equally distinctive stage presence, with Byrne's anxious yet clean-cut image becoming iconic. With hits like "Psycho Killer," "Once in a Lifetime," and "Burning Down the House," Talking Heads not only defined the sound of the '80s but also influenced countless artists across various genres. Their innovative approach to music and performance made them one of the most critically acclaimed and enduringly popular bands of their era.
