Talking Heads with Mark & John.

[Best Brown Baggies]

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?

I didn't know either that they joined the Talking Heads on stage!!!!!!!!!!

BBB - There's a chapter about Talking Heads tour with DS in the Myles Palmer book.  Just a few pages.   

[Best Brown Baggies]

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.

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.

I didn't hear it either, a great listen!
