Description

Today, David Byrne says it’s interesting that this album was – for many people – an introduction to Talking Heads: “We had done a live album before this, but coupled with the film, and with the improved mixes and sound quality, this record reached a whole new audience.

Stop Making Sense (Soundtrack) (remastered TALKING HEADS - Stop Making Sense (Soundtrack) (remastered

Pair these energetic tracks with an expanded lineup of a crack team of tight musicians including Parliament-Funkadelic’s Bernie Worrell, and you’ve got a momentous, utterly ecstatic musical event.A routinely great artist, much of Sufjan's universal appeal comes from his skills as a gifted narrator, pairing personal musings on love and devotion with commentary on American culture, whilst welding folk and electronica, the ambient and existential. The film includes Byrne's "big suit", an absurdly large business suit that he wears for the song "Girlfriend Is Better". Two years later we made the move to our present address, 35 The Headrow, where we have remained ever since. However, he discovered that filming the audience required additional lighting, which inhibited the audience's energy. Due to inventory and accounting purposes, we do not exchange items received for different items than originally purchased.

To mark the 40th anniversary of Jonathan Demme's acclaimed rockumentary, the soundtrack has been remastered again — and augmented with two more tracks. Lead singer David Byrne walks on to a bare stage with a portable cassette tape player and an acoustic guitar. If Warner/Rhino were ever to consider a vinyl reissue of “Stop Making Sense” in their “Start You Ear Off Right” series (or even as an RSD exclusive), I would definitely hope they visit the original (sic) rough cut source, and avoid the reworked/edited version that became the original album release (with the synth drums on many tracks) or the “Special Edition” re-issue that tried to present the entire song lineup but had to incorporate addition drastic edits to fit it onto the limited space of Compact Disc. While suffering from some compression from the FM source, this is a high quality boot (oops, “unofficial release”), somewhat surprising for a DOL pressing.

American independent film firm A24 have also remastered the concert in 4K, bringing it back to select cinemas for a run of limited screenings. It's the limited edition with booklet, Similar to variant 2, but no Allied stamp or B numbers on Side A, only on Side B. Now Rhino are offering a high-end double LP release of it, packaged with a 28-page booklet giving you deeper insight into an all-time great. Recorded at Hive Mind Studios in Brooklyn, NY, with the help of producer/arrangers Mike Buckley and Vincent Chiarito (both members of Charles Bradley's Extraordinaires) and crack team of a-list musicians, his upcoming album blends heavy arrangements and introspective lyrics with sophistication, leaving the listener in a blissful wash of wonderment. Over the last few months he has disarmed packed rooms of rowdy concert goers, leaving them silent as they hold fast to every syllable sung.

He jogs in place with his sidemen; he runs around the stage; he seems so happy to be alive and making music. Byrne would perform Girlfriend Is Better wearing his now-iconic, oversized business suit inspired by costumes worn in traditional Japanese theater. I don't know what an original vinyl sounds like (I had it on cassette back in the day), but it was digital to begin with. Speaking… remains their most eclectic, divergent, and hook-heavy album, where funk, synth-pop, disco, and early hip-hop influences collided. While it focuses mainly on music by Talking Heads but does include a few songs recorded outside the band: ‘Genius Of Love’ by Weymouth and Frantz’s side-project Tom Tom Club and ‘What A Day That Was’ and ‘Big Business’ from Byrne’s 1981 album, The Catherine Wheel.

Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 94 out of 100, based on 15 critics, indicating "universal acclaim". Directed by Jonathan Demme, it was shot over four nights at Hollywood's Pantages Theatre in December 1983, when Talking Heads were touring to promote their 1983 album Speaking in Tongues. The full audio of Talking Heads classic 1984 concert film, Stop Making Sense, will be issued on vinyl for the first time in August.

The Talking Heads live extravaganza is coming back to cinemas soon and so here is the soundtrack for the first time on vinyl and includes previously unreleased tracks 'Cities' and 'Big Business/I Zimbra' alongside never-seen-before photos and new essays. The record comes equipped with a reproduction of the booklet issued in the original LP, complete with previously unseen photos, and new liner notes from each band member regarding the film and its legacy.Since it includes “Big Business/I Zimbra”, I would hazard a guess that this is sourced from a possible rough cut print, which is what became the initial special edition home video release.
