    Throughout the latter half of 1978 and the early months of 1979, Talking
    Heads continued to criss-cross their way across Europe and the U.S.A.,
    surprising many audiences with the power of their live shows.

    Recognizing that on stage the band tapped into an energy source that
    their records left unminded, Warner Brothers (Sire's parent company)
    taped a Talking Heads show at the Agora in Cleveland on March 15th 1979.
    Entitled 'Talking Heads Live On Tour', the album caught the group on the
    verge of the sessions for their third album Fear Of Music, and one song,
    'Electricity', later appeared on that album as 'Drugs'. The rest of the
    live album consisted of songs from the first two studio LP's, charged
    with an emotional current that belied the often placid sound of the
    group's records.

    This is a transfer of my original radio transcript LP to digital. The
    record has been played a lot, so there is some surface noise, but it was
    minimal to begin with and I spent some time carefully cleaning what
    could be corrected without negatively impacting the music.

    LP > WAV > slight cleanup with Adobe Audition > FLAC

    The following tracks have been omitted because they have been officially
    released on the album "The Name of the Band is the Talking Heads".

    4. The Girls Want to Be with the Girls (3:56)
    6. Electricity (3:31)
    8. Found a Job (5:35)

    - went back to my original LP transfer files and did some more careful
    correction of many clicks & pops.

  2. I have had the vinyl for years. It is excellent. There is no cover, only the white cardboard type with the center cut out to show the label...
