The Psychedelic Furs “Talk Talk Talk”
The Psychedelic Furs “Talk Talk Talk” 1981. Today, December 7th, is the birthday of Furs co-founder and bass player Tim Butler (b. 1958). Talk Talk Talk is the band’s second album release, featuring the single “Pretty in Pink” which the band re-recorded for the movie of the same name in 1986. The original single from 1981 made it to #43 on the UK charts. “Dumb Waiters” also charted in the UK at #59 and made it onto the US dance/club charts at #27. “Into You Like a Train” is another great track, proclaiming really big love, as is “It Goes On” which has a great rhythm shift from swirling twirling punk-ish verse to slow-stomp chorus.
