Old news granted, but I only came across this today. 

The article in the Graniad is a nice read and quite enlightening, and those involved in the tribute seem enthusiastic and respectful.

Did anyone hear it?

    I have to admit to not appreciating the final two albums on their release.
    A revisit is overdue.
    I still play the first three regularly. I'll approach the covers thang after reaquainting with the originals.

    How funny Alan that you've posted this. Talk Talk have been the theme of Crimbo and 2018 so far for me! So welcoming the link. Ta.

    Very welcome! 

    Mark Hollis' solo album is great too, a natural follow on.

    Does anyone know what's on the cover though?
  • cj66cj66
    Yes!
    It fascinated me when I saw it on release. I thought it was possibly an eastern European biscuit but I found the correct answer reading an interview I think.
    Were you asking or testing?

    Asking! I've always found it slightly disturbing for some odd reason.

    News to me, too.

    I love Mark Hollis, the album. One of my all-time favourite albums.

    It's Sardinian Easter bread.
