The Best Record Store Day Release in Years?!?

- Record Store Day releases can be hit and miss, but during RSD 2024, we got one of the best titles ever!
In this video, we discuss the Talking Heads: Live at WCOZ '77 - a never before released Talking Heads live set featuring an amazing track listing, stellar sound, and amazing mastering.
You are 100% correct -they should have included a nice booklet etc - packaging very disappointing for such a great release! Best packaged release for RSD 2024 was easily EBTG EP- beautiful and exclusive content too!
I'm wondering if adding a a booklet or gatefold would have added like $20 to the (already high) price! At least I have no complaints about the vinyl!
I saw Talking Heads around 76/77 at the Roundhouse in London and they were great. I don’t buy records anymore, though it’s wonderful you young guys are into them! There are a few good videos on line that have a great sound, so not missing out entirely 😊
Thanks! And that is an amazing story about seeing them back in that era - I'm very jealous!
I was so stoked after 3 hrs in line to pick up the TH WCOZ...I was skeptical because I am not a huge live vinyl person. Jaw dropping sonics first track in (dead quiet, huge transparent soundstage). Could not agree with you more and it is not only my dark horse / surprise for my first RSD out, but sonically the standout of the 6 purchased last Sat. Ty for sharing...SUBSCRIBED!
Thank YOU!
I’m spinning this right now and wow, it’s the best sounding live performance I’ve ever heard!!!!
No kidding! Definately one of the best sounding records I have!
Couldn't get the talking heads record but I did get the soft Cell record. I live in a small town in TN and didn't feel like driving for an hour at 5am to get to a store and wait, in the rain for 5 hours for the store to open. So I just arrived late and got 1 of the 3 things I wanted. C'est la vie!
Great to hear the whole show at last. Super glad I found a copy, this one got gone FAST. Don’t know if we’ll see a reissue or not but ya never know. The recent Stop Making Sense remaster was reissued so hope springs eternal. BTW for the curious, 7 of the 14 songs appear on the expanded version of The Name of This Band is Talking Heads which is available on double CD and is streaming. Clean Break and The Book I Read are top shelf 🤘 “Check it out!”
I agree that there were a lot of good releases this RSD. I would include the 77 live Talking Heads on that list. The #1 on my list was the live Wall of Voodoo.
My copies had a lot of dust/paper particulate once i dug deeper, but a quick clean really helped
