    'The Colour Of Spring' is good, 'Laughing Stock' is great, but from beginning to end 'Spirit Of Eden' is perfection, their absolute masterpiece.

      The general consensus amongst Talk Talk fanatics has 'Laughing Stock' as their crowning achievement. I belong to that group, but know so many people that go with 'Spirit Of Eden'. Both albums are breathtaking in their beauty, and yet i believe their finest moment is a non album flipside. In case you hadn't already guessed, i'm referring to the wondrous 'It's Getting Late In The Evening', a piece of music that was nothing less than a spiritual experience! God bless. 🦜 🐬 😊

    Astonishing song from an amazing band , Hollis writes such poetic and beautiful lyrics. Amazing production. And what about that harmonica solo towards the end. Oh great you're playing The Rainbow too, Spirit of eden is a fantastic album too. The Colour of spring and Spirit of eden are two of the main reasons i cant give up smoking "Jazz cigarettes".

    Thank you Pete! Talk Talk are a favorite of mine, Colour of Spring is my favorite LP/CD.
    Spirit of Eden & Laughing Stock are great as well, but so different. I refer to them as my
    "headphone music". Guys please listen to the whole of Colour of Spring, it is just so good!

    I'm thrilled that people are finally discovering Talk Talk for reactions. The Color of Spring album was more organic sounding than their earlier albums, and Spirit of Eden was far ahead of its time. I consider it one the best albums ever.
    I applaud you digging into it! Desire is probably my favorite song on the album.

    I find the progression talk talk made from 82-90 as pretty special. Risking losing fans fame and money in the process, yet fearless to do what they wanted and what felt right... Might be a bit of a stretch, but similar in some ways to the beatles 62-70 period of evolution

    Shawn and Trey, I have never heard of Talk Talk, but on your facts you research they were formed in 1981, a British band. The first song has a lot of musical instruments and gives the music a full sound. I agree Shawn, production and arrangement stands out. I agree Trey on the interplay of organ and synth and guitars and also harmonica. The song moves at a steady pace. Well said on the comments. The second song has a unique vibe, especially as an album opener. You are right Trey about being meditative and the instrumentation is the highlight. I agree Shawn it sounds abstract. Trumpet, organ, distorted guitars, a lot of music packed into the song. Very good analogy Shawn on a life lesson that human interaction, first thing we say and last thing we say, just like in music, the album opener and closer express a lot about an album. Really good comments and insights by both you guys. You both chose the first song as the winner of this battle. I agree, the first song is the winner, but the second song is a unique listening experience. Very interesting contrasts in these songs Pete.
