I’ve been a fan of Talking Heads since I was a child, but I didn’t know about the special edition of Speaking in Tongues until, like, last year. Designed by Robert Rauschenberg. And I was shocked to find that it was still cheapish!?
So I bought a copy which finally arrived today, and…
Err… that’s a lot of yellowing…
Perhaps it wasn’t the best idea to make it out of very plastickey plastic…
And perhaps the vinyl itself wasn’t supposed to be that dark?
But that looks OK, I guess…
This is what it’s supposed to look like? That looks better!
Yellowed/brownish sleeve and vinyl due to age, like all copies.
Oh well.
