1x Vinyl LP, 

Talking Heads reshaped modern music by fusing post-punk intellect with polyrhythmic funk, worldbeat, and art-pop. Fronted by David Byrne, the band challenged rock conventions through anxious lyrics, avant-garde visuals, and dense, danceable grooves, bridging the gap between underground art-rock and mainstream pop culture.

Their 1982 release Speaking in Tongues marked a commercial breakthrough. Anchored by hits like "Burning Down the House" and "This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)", the album solidified their crossover success and birthed their iconic Stop Making Sense tour.

What a great sounding album, and iconic bro. This is really nice NZ pressing and just wonderful.

Sleeve a few crease marks, but tidy.
