TOM TOM CLUB
self titled Debut
The Talking Heads spawned a number of worthy side
projects and spinoffs—David Byrne & Brian Eno’s
My Life in the Bush of Ghosts, Jerry Harrison’s
The Red and the Black—but none were as funky,
danceable, and flat-out fun as Chris Frantz and
Tina Weymouth’s Tom Tom Club. Conceived as
something of a larkish break from the grandly realized
intellectual and artistic pretensions of the Heads’
Remain in Light record, the duo’s self-titled 1981 debut
was recorded in Barbados with Weymouth’s sisters
and Adrian Belew and Steven Stanley from the
Remain in Light band, and not only spawned a couple
of hit singles in “Genius of Love” and “Wordy Rappinghood”
but also became, in its own way, enormously influential.
This was the sound of downtown New York talking, listening,
and rapping to the burgeoning hip hop movement, a hybrid
heard in a whole host of acts in the ‘80s and ‘90s, from
Madonna to Mariah Carey to the Beastie Boys and beyond.
Weymouth and Frantz went on to record several more
albums under the Tom Tom Club moniker, but this remains
the classic; Real Gone Music is proud to offer Tom Tom Club
in a blue and yellow starburst vinyl edition
limited to 700 copies. Fun, natural fun!

LP PACKAGING We package our LPs in a thick cardboard LP mailer. We ALWAYS take the LP out of the jacket of 2nd hand items to avoid any seam splitting that could occur in shipment. We put the LP and the jacket in an LP plastic sleeve. We do NOT open sealed LPs unless requested. We cushion the LP in bubble wrap and use shipping tape on all spines to protect the integrity of the box, and to insure the safety of the contents. All this is included in the low shipping price. We will clean your purchase on our VPI machine if and when necessary. This insures that you receive your item in the best possible condition.WE COMBINE ITEMS FOR THE BEST SHIPPING PRICE
