REGISTER BELOW TO WIN Talking Heads: 77 3CD/BluRay OR Talking Heads “Stop Making Sense” 2CD/BluRay
Returning to where it all began, Talking Heads proudly presents the brand new and extensive Talking Heads: 77 (Super Deluxe Edition), is out now via Rhino.
A 4LP Black Vinyl + 4 7” Singles boxed set is available exclusively D2C at Rhino.com or store.talkingheadsofficial.com. This expansive collection of Talking Heads: 77 is housed in a lift-off-lid box, including the 4LPs: 1LP of the remastered original album, 1LP of rare and previously unreleased demos and outtakes, and a 2LP Live at CBGB, New York, NY, Oct. 10, 1977, only available in this vinyl box. The 7” singles are set in a gatefold with a black and white image of the band and an immersive 80-page hardcover book comprising never-before-seen photos, fliers, artwork, and thoughtful liner notes personally penned by each member–Tina Weymouth, David Byrne, Chris Frantz, and Jerry Harrison, plus notes by recording engineer Ed Stasium.
The boxed set offers 13 previously unreleased live recordings captured during their unforgettable last performance at CBGB’s in New York, NY, on October 10, 1977. These renditions of “Psycho Killer,” “Uh-Oh Love Comes to Town,” and “Don’t Worry About The Government” see the group firing on all cylinders in front of a rabid hometown crowd unassumingly witnessing history-in-the-making.
Among a plethora of extras, the Rarities range from long sought-after B-sides and alternate versions to acoustic recordings. One such gem is the rare “Psycho Killer (Acoustic Version)” [feat. Arthur Russell]. Heralding the collection, Talking Heads just shared the latter on all DSPs. They also unearthed a previously unheard Alternate Version of “Psycho Killer,” as well as an unheard Alternate “Pop” Version of “Pulled Up” for the set.
The Talking Heads:77 Super Deluxe Edition is out now, packed with rarities, unreleased outtakes, and the previously unissued Live at CBGB’s performance from October 10, 1977. This release is available in multiple formats, including a 4LP/4 7” boxed set, a 3CD/Blu-ray box, a 2LP neon green vinyl version, and a 2LP black vinyl version. Additionally, the Stop Making Sense Deluxe Edition soundtrack returns as a 2LP black vinyl, while the 2CD/Blu-ray version features a Dolby Atmos mix of the complete concert.
