Talking Heads with Mark & John.
« on: February 23, 2015, 08:38:56 PM »
I know Dire Straits supported Talking Heads in 77, but was unaware there was any audio of it about.
I have just seen this on John Illsleys facebook page.
Can this be verified?



And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles.

Yes, I have that book. I was just unaware there was any audio from those gigs. In particular with Mark & John joining them on stage.

That audio surfaced last year and was shared at laknopflertk tracker, actually a Talking Heads concert surfaced, and a Dire Straits concert as their supporting act also surfaced at the same time.
You might get lucky, now and then

Sorry for bringing up old news. I've been out of the loop for a while now.
I thought I'd found something exciting.
Hope some more goodies surface!!! :-))

You do not need to apologize: I'm sure many have missed the news, hidden in the "torrent" thread.
