Head to the record shop on Friday, November 8th for a special midday Talking Heads: 77 Listening Party! At noon we’ll be spinning the Talking Heads classic record Talking Heads: 77 in honor of the release of the brand new and extensive Talking Heads: 77 ( Deluxe Edition), due out that day via Rhino Records. In addition to listening to the album in the shop, we’ll also be handing out Talking Heads party favors and free raffle tickets for a sweet Talking Heads giveaway. (There is no cost to participate, must be present to win.)
Talking Heads: 77 is being presented as an expanded 2LP version, featuring a new remaster of the original album on LP1, while LP2 features a collection of rarities encompassing outtakes and previously unreleased alternate versions. Two Super Deluxe Editions are also available as multi-disc sets (a 3 CD + 1 blu-ray set, and a 4 LP + 4 7” set), both of which are housed in a beautiful 80-page hardcover book with new liner notes from Tina, David, Chris & Jerry and featuring rare and unreleased photos of the band and ephemera throughout the era. In addition to the remastered original album and the collection of rarities, the Super Deluxe Edition includes a previously unreleased recording of the band's final show at CBGB's in New York City on October 10th, 1977 (this is LP 3 & LP4 in the vinyl set and Disc 3 in the CD set). The CD set includes a Blu-Ray disc boasting the new Atmos Mix, 5.1 Mix DTS-HD MA, 5.1 Mix LPCM and the 2024 Stereo Remaster. The Super Deluxe vinyl Edition contains reproductions of the 4 Sire Records 7"s from Talking Heads: 77 including 'Love → Building on Fire / New Feeling', 'Uh-Oh, Love Comes To Town / I Wish You Didn't Say That', 'Psycho Killer / Psycho Killer (Acoustic)' and 'Pulled Up / Don't Worry About The Government' (all with picture sleeves.)
We can’t wait to dig into these amazing sets and hope you’ll join us in the shop as we check out the remastered album and unearthed bonus tracks! We’ll have copies of the album available in the shop for purchase that day but this is a free & all ages affair, so come one, come all!
