Monday Coffee and Tunes - 9/06/25
Talking Heads - Little Creatures
In my uni days I worked at a posh botique. The type were women would have a coffee and then casually drop $1000+ on their Sunday browse. It was wild! The accountant for the business was a hard left unionist that insisted I be paid double time and a half on my Sunday shifts so the money was good. That wage paid for a lot of my post punk vinyl records that I'd go buy at the nearby bigstar after my shift.
On Saturdays I worked with the store manager - an excentric polish woman who would play Michael Buble and KD Lang. I couldn't stand Michael Buble. On Sundays I worked by myself and would try and sneak in some different music and trial what I could get away with. This is one of the albums I'd play regularly. Although it's their most successful album this not in my top tier favourite Talking Heads albums. But it does contain one of my favourite tracks - The Lady Don’t Mind.
All these years I naively thought the album art for Little Creatures was the same artist for Tom Tom Club but a quick google quickly proved that incorrect!
