Any Talk Talk fans ??

Talk Talk are one of my favourite bands who unfortunately havent toured since 86.Anyone fortunate enough to see them live? I think its unlikely they will ever do so again as Mark Hollis has retired from music,Such a shame as the man is a genius !!

I loved Talk Talk too... I haven't seen them live unfortunately, but though I have said it before... there is a lot of their music on Spotify.

Talk Talk were amazing! I never got to see them live, but got into them in a big way when I got an I-Pod Touch two years ago. I downloaded a few of their albums and couldn't believe what a fantastic track "The Party's over" is , beats me why they didn't release it as a single back in 1986. I always felt that they were the "also-rans" of 80's pop bands and that unfortunately they never trully got the success they deserved.

Even though I grew up listening to a lot of music in the 1980s, Talk Talk were a group that somehow managed to pass me by.

I have been trying to make up since, I certainly like their self titled song, It's Your Life & Life's What You Make it.

I loved "It's my Life" by Talk Talk - they always used to play it in the programme No Limits - with Jonathan King - Lisa Maxwell was in it too followed by Jenny Powell - anyone remember?

Love all the albums, but Spirit Of Eden is just the BEST!

What do you think of No Doubt's version of "It's my life"?

Yeah, I love 'em, but I prefer their early stuff from '82-ish. I've got a vinyl copy of their debut album- I like Ice House as well.

Great band. Never listened to them in the 80s, but really like them now.

A really underated band. I saw them live supporting Duran Duran in the early 80's, they were very good!.
