Compared to the original 1997 release, the new edition features the band's greatest hits in chronological order. It also includes a remastered recording of the band's last album, Laughing Stock. The re-release will be released on March 14th as a 2LP in a black gatefold cover and on CD. Formed in 1981 by Mark Hollis, Lee Harris and Paul Webb, Talk Talk rose to worldwide fame with their first two albums The Party's Over and It's My Life. Songs such as "Talk Talk", "Today", "It's My Life" and "Such a Shame" became timeless classics and reached the top 40 of the UK charts. With The Colour of Spring (1986), the band took their first steps towards experimental sounds, which ultimately culminated in their acclaimed masterpiece Spirit of Eden. Their last studio album, Laughing Stock, was released in 1991 and marked another turning point towards post-rock. Talk Talk is often considered a pioneer of post-rock. Their influence extends to artists such as Kate Bush, Tears for Fears and Radiohead. In addition, many musicians have reinterpreted the band's works, including No Doubt, who scored an international hit with their version of "It's My Life".
