  Talk Talk are so dependable for a good listen (but especially at night, in the dark)...i got the middle 3 albums and 2 extended 12inch promos (living in another world, life's what you make it)...i agree with the dude below...gotta track down some more extended goodness....just a shame they broke up before i was born...

  Late 80s @ far Southern hemisphere, and strangely we were able to discover how soothing was to drive with TT's looong versions along the unending roads thru deserts, forests, towns or whatever. /////////////////FFWD to 1991, a rented small room near London, and just couldn't help myself and fell down into my bed right at seconds from its 1st listen. 5 minutes and I couldnt stop my tears rolling all over Spirit of Eden's 1st tune...

(that is 20 minutes). Spirit of Eden is one of the albums that have touch me really inside. Thank you Hollis and the ones who were there & did it. Acknowlegements??? For been able to go thru the jungle of merchants and sound-dictators and release much of their music unedited, uncompress (at 12" extended releases at least). For retaining their unique sound merging the acoustic beauty of instruments and without getting fundamentalistic about it, been able to merge it with effects and experimentation whilts not falling in the easy trap of using presets and the crappy digital drums or keys available back then 8and many times being imposed into artist. Finally, for being brave enough to release Spirit of Eden and thus allowing many of us getting a broader view of what music; pop music, close and near music may achieve and be built into... and all without losing any true feeling or heart felt emotions. ......Thank you, thank you, thank you. PD. ...and for being a close companion when i felt alone, unfitting in a foreign country, in a foreing planet, it seems.. .

  I really don't know any album the likes of Laughing Stock. It's about as much towards art composition without loosing it's soul as anything in rock, I've ever heard. I don't think I will ever ever grow tired of this album. "After the Flood" is epic and "Taphead" is fantastic.

  Most definetly, one of the most prolific bands of the 80's! Mark Hollis is quite simply a genius!
