I just bought the Talking Heads Brick boxed set- all 8 studio albums, remastered, on DualDiscs- DVD video on the non-CD side. And I got it for a cool $40 off; thanks, Barnes & Nobles Employee Appreciation Week!


I'll give you some time, but I expect a review.

I'm expecting him to make us all a copy.

In the last few days, the New York Dolls s/t album has only left my car CD player when I've brought it inside.  I am listening to it now, too.  I don't know what brought this on, but I am loving it.  It's nearly perfect.

I'm a little late here, but I have the US version.  Do you have particular wishes vis-a-vis bit rate/format?

Unrelated question: is it okay to like Diane Cluck?  Her latest CD is very awesome but when I'm listening to it I get this Ani/Joni vibe and that sort of frightens me.  Not that there's a problem with Ani or Joni, but I'd just like to know beforehand if I'm going to have to start buying patchouli and putting my hair in dreads.  (Also I might have to become a lesbian, which would be fairly complicated for me.)

Very expensive, at least.

Awesome. I'd prefer mp3 just for portability. Being a huge geek I use -alt preset standard but I'll take whatever. Do you have a method of transport? I can see if I can allow you to FTP them to up to my site.

The two new tracks are We Just Won't Be Defeated and Hold Yr Terror Close. Which is frustrating because the whole reason I got the import was that the US release was supposed to have fewer tracks as the US label was having trouble getting licenses for some of the samples. I was also hoping that they'd do like Wilco and put the bonus tracks up on their site for free but no dice.

If you can give me FTP access that would be cool, otherwise I can just put them up on my web space for a while.  I was at my girlfriend's place last night but tonight I will definitely be able to upload them.  Provided, that is, that I don't get too drunk at the company HOLIDAY PARTY and miss the last train home before the damn subway strike.

hold yr terror close is pretty dumb, they're going for a high school musical sort of sound with that singular sound of pianos in a gym

singing too i guess, pretty slight, really interrupts everything, dumb dumb

haven't heard just won't be defeated. might be better.



today i picked up dungen's 2-disc "ta det lugnt" reissue and "talking heads 77" on old vinyl

plus the new liars record leaked onto the internet and it will stalk the streets by night let me tell you !

am I the only person in the world that cannot get into the talking heads?

They played at my SO's parent's wedding. I cannot explain how this happened, considering I have been told many a tale about how they were so poor that they had to steal hotdogs from grocery stores when they first got married. Maybe it was before Talking Heads were big? Maybe they knew someone in the band?

You're not. My girlfriend loves them (but then again she's 33). I could never wrap my mind around their stuff (but then again I generally started paying attention to music during the grunge era, which means I have wooden ears, and couldn't care less for much that was created in the 80's)

You think I could persuade Byrne to sort something out for my mate's wedding?
He's stuck with shitty Ukrainian wedding bands at the moment!

Yeah yeah.
OK. My mate was the last person alluded to, but I'll give you it for the shakey sentence structure.
Dang.
