bickster Posted March 19, 2021 Moderator Share Posted March 19, 2021 Talking Heads - Fear of Music Below isn't the proper cover for my release but Discogs thinks it is, time for yet another debate.... (proper cover is plain black no alluminium sheeting effect) But my flabber was rather ghasted when I looked it up on Discogs as I've sort of assumed most of my CDs are only going to add £2 or £3 each to the value of the collection but not this one. It regularly sells for in excess of £35 which is a whopping price for a CD It's a 2006 rerelease with the original album and bonus tracks on the CD and a DVD containing the original album in Dolby 5.1 plus a couple of other videos. I have at least 4 of these 2006 TH rereleases 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly original issues, maybe a couple of replacements for lost/broken versions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit of detectering needed. I just did it with my More Songs about Buildings and Food CD/DVD and it found it straight away, so I guess these versions with the DVD have a unique barcode On the website you can group them by country so you only need to check the Uk & EUrope ones then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did update the app and it’s stopped crashing, so that’s nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes, there was a late 60’s early 70’s sweet spot where they sound a bit like a Primal Scream tribute act that’s really very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, let's call it their Primal Scream period But yes, that run of four albums from Beggars Banquet to Exile on Main Street is where it's at with the Stones for me. Either side of that the albums are OK and either side of that is a blues cabaret band and Meh! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tattoo You even as a compilation of sorts is possibly my favourite album by them. After that I couldn’t be arsed with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
