TALKING HEADS True Creature home demos
Found somewhere on the blogosphere, these are incredible-sounding (though slightly hissy) home recordings David Byrne laid down in 1984 for tracks that would later appear on Talking Heads’ mid-80s masterpiece Little Creatures and its just-aiiight follow-up True Stories. Using what sounds like a Linn drum machine and his guitar, these tracks are bare-bones, but still incredibly soulful and in certain cases, given the lack of production that mired a good amount of the songs on True Stories, actually sound better here. Too bad Byrne’s solo albums can’t all sound like this. I hope these see the light of day on an official level someday soon. Thank you. -Ed.
