Talking Heads Remastered

Anyone out there splurg on the newly remastered Talking Heads Catalog "Brick"? Released on dualdisc with remastered stereo mixes on CD layer and extra tracks from the recording sessions and video and 5.1 mixes on the DVD layer. Every Talking Heads studio album is in the collection.

These albums were in desperate need of remastering as they came out in the late seventies and 80s. The original CD attempts sound pretty bad.

I've only been istening for a week and don't do 5.1, but the new mixes really add alot. They are tastfully done (Jerry Harrison had a lot to do with it) and sound great. I encourage any Talking heads fan to update their collection with this set.

Anyone else hear these things?

I'm a huge Heads fan, and I picked up "Brick" the day it came out. I was VERY impressed by the sonics. They waited a long time to remaster the catalog, but when they DID do it, they did it right.

great release, haven't seen the dvd extras
but the extra cuts are wonderful

I also saw individual albums recently released with the extras

if I only picked up two it would be Remain in Light and Fear of Music

great remasters

Not yet. Waiting for finalization of copy-protection for the multichannel vinyl format.
