Great Deal - Memories Can't wait

Look, its a great deal: (price)or so for 3 albums by a great band. You can't go wrong.

For me, it was nostalgic; I have the albums on casette, but don't seem to play them anymore. But I have two memories of what I listened to while working on my thesis nearly 20 years ago: my casette recording of my neighbor's Speaking in Tongues and Remain in Light, and NPR radio, which on Sundays used to play some guy telling stories about a lake in Minnesota, along with a show playing folk music. (One day after months of listening to this in the background, I was concentrating on my writing less than usual, and noticed that the two shows were one and the same.)

Some of the Talking Heads material seems topical all over again, both before Sept 11 ("Our president's crazy / Did you hear what he said?") and after ("the sound of gunfire off in the distance", "what is happening to my skin?") Some of it is inspiring ("I knew my heart was in the right place / I knew I'd be able to do these things") or makes you think ("By keeping an ideal facial structure fixed in his mind or somewhere in the back of his mind / He thought that he might, by force of will, cause his face to approach those of his ideal ... This is why first impressions are often correct") and some of it just makes you think "what were they thinking?" ("Look over there / Dry ice factory / Good place to get some thinking done").

If you loved them then, you will again; if you missed them then (or weren't born then) try them now.

Treasure for free?

This is an unbelievable offer. Talking Heads is one of my favourite bands of alltime. Three of their best albums are in this pack (Another great album "More songs about buildins and food" is not in the pack). The price is unbelievable if you remember that the CDs are imported. Talking heads, one of the groundbreaking acts in late seventies and eighties with their best recording in this price is like getting a free gift. My favourite songs like "Once in a lifetime", "Burning down the house", "I zimra" are in this 3 CD pack. It is simply a treat for punk flavoured world music lovers. This should be the buy of your life.
