Collection: Talk Talk​

British synth pop / art rock band founded in 1981 in London and disbanded in 1991. The group had a string of international hit singles including "[m=22872", "[m=22902", "[m=25562", "[m=25278", "[m=25824" and "[m=26166".

They moved away from synth-pop to a more experimental form with the album [i[m=26239[/i in 1986, and their critical reputation increased.
Their final two albums, [i[m=26436[/i (1988) and [i[m=26553[/i (1991), are highly acclaimed and remain influential to experimental alternative rock genres.

With Simon Brenner out, [a60622 was recruited to assist with the recording of their second album [i[m=25599[/i (1984) and he soon became the band's producer and de facto fourth member. He played keyboards and became Hollis' frequent songwriting partner, co-writing all the songs on [i[m=26239[/i (1986), [i[m=26436[/i (1988) and [i[m=26553[/i (1991). Although a major contributor to the band's studio output, [a60622 did not regularly play with the touring band, and was absent from the band's publicity material.
