DEAD LINKS

NOTE : DEAD LINKS
We'd like to thank everyone for preventing us of dead links. For the moment, we are note able to re-up them.

Feel free to keep on preventing us of those dead links. We will update them when we (I and Jeb-E-Diah) have more time to (understand : from september). Some of them will be partially or completely repacked considering albums which would have been issued thereafter and surely with new and improved artworks.

Stay tuned !

TALK TALK (ABO #186)


TALK TALK
LIVING IN ANOTHER WORLD

This compilation is all about understanding the tremendous evolution that saw Talk Talk evolve from a good little new wave/romantic pop act to something I can only relate to geniuses such as Robert Wyatt or Scott Walker. How the hell did that happen?
Therefore, a lot of the singles that made Talk Talk a succesful band are missing here and I chose to focus on the more arty side of things.
From the winning hit Such a Shame is to progressive rock that will influence what was to be known as Post Rock, you'll have a taste of a band unlike others. One I dearly miss and see no hope of ever returning.
