Talking Heads – Little Creatures

I haven’t listened to the entire record, but for a new $15 Talking Heads record that so far sounds punchy, clean and well normalized, I’m jumping on the positive train and giving this one its due. No need to discuss the songs, we are all aware.

Anyone knew if this and the other Sterling JNH Talking Heads reissues are all-analog or cut from hi-res digital? Since it's Rhino and the albums with the older all-analog Bellman/Gray cuts aren't labeled as such, plus Joe Nino-Hernes cuts from both tape and digital (and has gotten great results with digital in the past), I figure both are entirely possible. But I'd like to know for sure either way.

But yes, either way, this is a great-sounding pressing, and a pretty clean one from Precision despite their reputation.

Great pressing, despite the Precision Record Pressing warning! Fantastic, dynamic sound and little to no crackles for this pressing plant. Good stuff!

Sounds perfect, no quality issues. Pressing is perfect, mastering well done, prefer this to the CD medium I own.

Man, this band was original. Breath of fresh air even 30 years plus ago. The record pressing sounds great. I’m assuming they are using the older cast. Highly recommended!

Just like toomanyrecordshere mentioned here, no bells or whistles. It sounds adequate, and i imagine that the 2005 remaster was used here. My European DMM copy sounds livelier, with more glitter all around the production. You'll get a pretty compressed sound on this reissue, but that doesn't sound overly cluttered either. Grab it if it's cheap.

I know it's not their most beloved record, but I really enjoyed listening to this. And She Was and Road to Nowhere are worth it on their own, but really the worst Talking Heads song is still a pretty good song. Pressing is fine. No bells and/or whistles.
