About TALK TALK
Talk Talk were an English band formed in 1981 by Mark Hollis (vocals, guitar, piano), Lee Harris (drums), Paul Webb (bass), and Simon Brenner (keyboards). The band initially performed as a synth-pop group, and their first two albums, "The Party's Over" (1982) and "It's My Life" (1984), reached the top 40 in the UK and produced international singles including "Talk Talk", "Today", "It's My Life", and "Such a Shame". The band's third album, "The Colour of Spring" (1986), brought widespread critical acclaim in the UK and across Europe, with singles such as "Life's What You Make It" and "Living in Another World". Their 1988 album, "Spirit of Eden", marked a shift toward a more experimental sound influenced by jazz and improvisation, helping to pioneer what later became known as post-rock. While "Spirit of Eden" received critical praise, it was less successful commercially. Disputes with their label, EMI, led to legal action, and following Paul Webb's departure, Talk Talk moved to Polydor for their final studio album, "Laughing Stock" (1991), before disbanding. Mark Hollis released a solo album in 1998 and subsequently retired from the music industry; he died in 2019. Paul Webb and Lee Harris collaborated in several other projects, including .O.rang, while long-term collaborator Tim Friese-Greene continued working in music as a producer and musician.
