Talking Heads Brick: 30th Anniversary Box Set, CD & 5.1 High Resolution 8 Albums

Description: I purchased this box set new and it’s been in my large collection kept in like new condition. Released in 2005 & long out of print, this rare Rhino Records DVD Audio / CD Dual Disc box set is in like new condition. Packaging & media discs are in excellent condition. Each disc has two playable sides; One is a DVD Audio with 24bit 96kHz High Resolution Stereo and 5.1 Surround multi-channel mixes playable only in DVD, DVD Audio or B lu-ray players. The other side is a standard CD playable in any CD player. Truly a one of a kind set that has never been reissued or duplicated. The mastering on both sides is excellent. Listening to all of these albums in high resolution and in 5.1 multi-channel sound is an incredible experience. Includes eight studio albums including; Talking Heads: 77 More Songs About Buildings And Food Fear Of Music Remain In Light Speaking In Tongues Little Creatures True Stories Naked Talking Heads' 30th anniversary is commemorated in typically artful style here, sonically upgrading their eight, era-defining albums via bonus-packed Dual Discs and encasing them in a molded white plastic box intricately embossed with the band's song titles. Each disc contains complete album tracks and bonus cuts remastered in High Resolution Stereo on its CD side, while the DVD programming on the flip offers up the audio tracks in expansive new 5.1 Surround Sound mixes, with all of the sonic upgrading personally supervised by Jerry Harrison. Those long overdue audio improvements alone would make it an attractive set, but fans of the band will find its wealth of bonus music (various B-sides and previously unreleased outtakes) and video (including a number of rare live clips seeing their first release here) supplements equally intriguing. Bonus musical highlights include four rhythmically-charged, unfinished Remain in Light outtakes (including one that eventually evolved into the band's signature "Once in a Lifetime") that allow insightful glimpses into Eno's innovative production techniques on the album, alternate versions of "Cities," "Life During Wartime" and "Mind" from Fear of Music, a countrified version of "Thank You For Sending Me an Angel" from More Songs About.. and a strangely muted early version of another Heads staple, Speaking in Tongue's "Burning Down the House." An early demo of "And She Was" from Little Creatures demostrates that the whole of a glorius pop song can be the assembly of its simple parts. The additional visual materials (especially the raw early performance clips) are a welcome addition to the Heads' canon.
