Talking Heads - More Songs About Buildings & Food (Deluxe Edition) Talking Heads
This deluxe edition of Talking Heads’ groundbreaking second album features a brand new remaster and a selection of rarities.
Choosing Brian Eno to produce them, Talking Heads expanded their sound greatly for their second album released in 1978. 'More Songs About Buildings And Food' stands amongst the Talking Heads' best work. The influence of producer Brian Eno stands out as he helped propel the band forwards into increasingly innovative territory. The entire album, even the minor hit, an Eno-treated cover version of Al Green's "Take Me To The River," sounds amazingly fresh some thirty-six years later.
Super Deluxe 4LP
The 4LP Super Deluxe Edition features the remastered album alongside 11 rarities, including four previously unreleased alternate versions of album tracks. The set also includes a live recording of the band’s August 1978 show at New York’s Entermedia Theatre. A 60-page hardcover book rounds out the package, with previously unseen photos and new liner notes with recollections from Tina Weymouth, David Byrne, Chris Frantz, and Harrison.
