Heaven - KEXP session / 03.14.06




Official Voxtrot Podcast show

Summary: KEXP live session, 03.14.06 "The first time we played O'Leaver's in Omaha, Nebraska, we were all sitting around the bar enjoying our free pints of domestic beer, pre-show. The Talking Heads were playing on the house speakers and everybody in our band, minus myself, was singing along. Not that I wouldn't like to have been singing along, but I am almost completely unfamiliar with the Talking Heads' catalogue. That song in particular grabbed me and I began to think that it would sound wonderful reformatted with a new kind of drive. It wasn't until many months later that we decided to put it together, but I'm glad we did. For me, it was totally made by the delayed guitars. A far cry from the perfection of the original, or possibly a whole different animal. Either way, this song is very invigorating to play live." -Ramesh
