Thanks to Alex from the big country, I offer you Talking Heads with their CBS studio demos. Most of these songs were tidied up and appeared on Talking Heads : 77 (1977) and More Songs About Buildings And Food (1978). Four of the songs remained unreleased until the 1992 double cd compilation - Popular Favorites 1976 - 1992 Sand In The Vaseline. From memory the demo versions were used, so unfortunately I cannot make them available. That aside, I'm certain you'll enjoy the raw versions of the remaining songs.
The sound quality is superb.
Why not catch up with their back catalogue, newly remastered with bonus tracks and dvd. You'll pick most of them up for £6 or less (HMV online or Fopp).
Enjoy.

Cheers, koen.
Thanks for the link. I'll check out your site.
Great!! Amazing!! Terrific!!
Excelent recordings, a find. Thank you for posting such a treasure.
Hi - I don't know if you have these tracks, but "I wish you wouldn't say that" and "Love -> building on fire" on Sand in the Vaseline are the album versions, not from these demo sessions. But thanks for posting this regardless!
Thanks for this. Amazing, nervy recordings. Quite a journey from here to 'I Zimbra' and 'Blind'.
Er, could someone tell me how to access the music?
I can read the text, but can't figure out how to listen.
This is the appropriate weblog for anybody who needs to search out out about this topic. You notice a lot its nearly exhausting to argue with you (not that I truly would need…HaHa). You positively put a new spin on a topic thats been written about for years. Great stuff, simply nice! online casinos
