Talk Talk: Spirit Of Eden (LP)

Hardly any other band of the 1980s changed their sound and style as radically in such a short time as Talk Talk. Within six years (1982 - 1988) and four albums for EMI, they transformed themselves from New Romantics pop on their debut album "The Party's Over" with minor hits such as "Talk Talk" or "Today" to the almost archaic avant-garde rock/pop on "Spirit Of Eden". On this album, the band was supported by illustrious guests such as violinist Nigel Kennedy and double bass legend Danny Thompson.
