BLOCKING HEADS
All Eight Studio Albums Remastered And Expanded As DualDisc Brick Featuring DVD-A Surround Sound Mix Plus Rare, Unreleased Audio And Video Tracks From Rhino October 4
LOS ANGELES — Talking Heads’ eight pioneering albums defied easy musical categorization, and now, eleven years after David Byrne, Chris Franz, Tina Weymouth and Jerry Harrison’s last release together, Rhino Records does physically what could not be done musically – it puts Talking Heads in a box. TALKING HEADS features each of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees’ studio albums remastered, expanded and released simultaneously on Dual Disc. Packaged in a dramatic white plastic block with song titles chiseled into it, TALKING HEADS is available October 4 at regular retail outlets and at www.rhino.com for a suggested price of $149.98.
Coproduced by Talking Heads with Harrison personally overseeing the audio and DVD-A remixes, TALKING HEADS includes all of their studio albums — the band’s 1977 debut, their Brian Eno and self-produced classics, and the band’s 1998 swan song, the Steve Lillywhite-produced Naked. Each DualDisc includes the original album in remastered stereo plus rare bonus songs on the CD side. The DVD side contains the original album mixed in 5.1 Surround Sound, plus bonus audio and VIDEO CONTENT, lyrics and photos.In addition to the hits “Burning Down the House,” “Take Me To The River,” “Road To Nowhere,” “Wild, Wild Life” and “Once In A Lifetime,” this deluxe sonic upgrade includes an impressive collection of previously unavailable bonus songs and videos. Unreleased highlights include an acoustic version of “Psycho Killer” mixed in 5.1 Surround Sound, a live 1976 video performance of “I Feel It In My Heart” recorded at The Kitchen in New York, alternate mixes of “The Big Country” and “Life During Wartime,” early versions of “And She Was” and “Road To Nowhere," a version of “Papa Legba,” featuring Pops Staples, several unfinished outtakes from the Remain In Light sessions, as well as Videos and German television performances.Formed in the mid-’70s at the Rhode Island School of Design, Talking Heads were art school punks who made a name on the nascent punk scene at CBGBs before evolving into one of pop music’s most adventurous and influential bands. Talking Heads pioneered a polyrhythmic sound that barrowed from rock, funk, punk, world beat and avant-garde minimalism to create clever, experimental music embraced by radio audiences.
