Brick
This specially packed boxed set contains all eight of Talking Heads'
studio albums, expanded and remastered as two-sided DualDiscs featuring
audiophile DVD-A sound, rare and previously unreleased material,
and video tracks.
Packaging includes an outer white molded plastic box with raised
song titles, housing eight individually packaged white jewel cases,
each containing liner notes, rare photos, and song-inspired art
pieces.
'Brick' is the first complete artist studio catalog released on
DualDisc.
All dualdiscs are scheduled for seperate release in two batches
in January 2006. The "Brick" is a limited edition that
houses all albums. As the jewel cases in "Brick" do not
contain tracklists or titles on the spine, it's very likely the
january 2006 releases will come in 'standard' DualDisc digipacks.
The discs are rumoured to be identical to the ones in "Brick".
Each disc contains an Advanced Resolution Stereo mix on the regular
CD side and an Advanched Resolution 5.1 Surround Sound on the DVD-Audio
side (Dolby surround). Both sides come with -different- bonus tracks
and videos.
The 5.1 surround mixing was done by Eric 'E.T.' Thorngren (who
produced Talking Heads albums in the past and did some remixes for
the band too) and Jerry Harrison.
Each album comes with a booklet containing the lyrics for all regular
album tracks, liner notes, a note on the 5.1 mix by Jerry Harrison,
a limited edition art-print (all taken from the Frank Olinsky book
"What the Songs Look Like") and an on-disc photo/picture
gallery which can be viewed while listening to the DVD-Audio side.
