Talking Heads announce super deluxe debut album reissue with "Psycho Killer" acoustic featuring Arthur Russell
Talking Heads have announced the forthcoming extensive Talking Heads: 77 (Super Deluxe Edition).
The boxed set offers 13 previously unreleased live recordings captured during their last performance at CBGB’s in New York on 10 October 1977, including renditions of “Psycho Killer,” “Uh-Oh Love Comes to Town,” and “Don’t Worry About The Government".
The 7” singles are set in a gatefold with a black and white image of the band and an immersive 80-page hardcover book comprising never-before-seen photos, fliers, artwork, and thoughtful liner notes personally penned by each member–Tina Weymouth, David Byrne, Chris Frantz, and Jerry Harrison.
Among a plethora of extras, the Rarities range from long sought-after B-sides and alternate versions to acoustic recordings, including the rare “Psycho Killer (Acoustic Version)” featuring Arthur Russell.
The Super Deluxe Edition caps off a celebratory season for Talking Heads, who recently commemorated the 40th anniversary of Stop Making Sense, which was remastered by A24. A covers album, Everyone’s Getting Involved: A Tribute to Talking Heads’ Stop Making Sense, featuring the likes of Miley Cyrus, Paramore, Lorde, girl in red, and more, was also released in celebration.
