No other cuts or edits from master. The original uploader's info says that The Talking Heads were the opening act for The B-52's, this however is incorrect, The B-52's opened for The Talking Heads. The B-52's have also released their set from this date as a digital download therefore their set will be deleted from the blog. This recording has great sound and should be in even the casual Talking Heads fan's collection.

Actually, its the other way around. The B-52s opened for Talking Heads.
ReplyDeleteYesterday I claimed that The B-52s opened for Talking Heads on 8-24-1979 without offering any proof that I knew what I was talking about. Here is a link from the official B-52s website that backs up my claim. Please don't post this comment, only the original, thanks. http://theb52s.com/live-8-24-1979/
ReplyDeleteThe information on the rear art work is incorrect. The B-52s opened for Talking Heads. Think about it, Talking Heads had 2 albums under their belt already and B-52s had *just* released their 1st album. It makes sense.
ReplyDeleteActually I want to thank you for the information, since I only went by the info included with this recording (I didn't make the recording or attend the show) but I was wondering about this statement ..."The information on the rear art work is incorrect. The B-52s opened for Talking Heads. Think about it, Talking Heads had 2 albums under their belt already and B-52s had *just* released their 1st album. It makes sense" ... but since there is no art work included in this download I don't understand, also it kind of looks as if you might be a little upset that your very helpful comment (I mean that it's not sarcasm hadn't been posted yet .. I'm really sorry for that but I work 60 plus hours a week and have a family so it some times takes me a day or two before I can get to this website were I offer lots of free bootleg music for anyone who wants to download it. So I hope this helps you understand I was not ignoring your helpful information (and I mean that it's not sarcasm) , but actually really and truly am grateful for it so we can all have the correct info with the music we all love. Thank you my friend and I hope you enjoy the music. By the way you also helped me out because the link you posted was to a digital release of The B52's set from this show, which was posted on this blog but will be removed due to it being commercially available. A big thank you for that one! As we do not want to rip off the artists. Thanks!
