scrippit Posted December 11, 2019 Report Share Posted December 11, 2019 Yes, I saw it on Twitter, ergo it must be true. DIYmag.com, Billboard and others say that a new Talking heads Instagram has popped up. It might be nothing but then again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked it up at a 2nd hand record store on Haight-Ashbury around 25 years ago. I didn't know of its existence till I saw it. edit: also got The Red & The Black there too, which i'd been trying to find in the UK without success.

I saw it in Manchester one of the best live shows I've ever seen . Deeply regret that I never got to see talking heads live but this was so good .
