Description

Original 1983 United States first retail pressing of the landmark studio album "Speaking in Tongues" by Talking Heads. Released on Sire Records (Catalog Number: 9 23883-1 on the spine, 1-23883 on the center label). This copy features the classic yellow Sire center labels accented with the distinct geometric track symbols next to the song list on Side A. The outer jacket showcases the iconic yellow, red, and blue graphic artwork designed directly by frontman David Byrne.This record comes straight from my personal collection—Talking Heads absolutely rules! It has been carefully stored in a smoke-free home. I am happy to play-test the vinyl prior to shipping upon request to guarantee a smooth listening experience. Don't miss out on adding a true piece of original 1980s new wave and post-punk history to your turntable setup.
