Talk Talk ‎- The Color Of Spring (Vinyl LP + DVD)

Talk Talk – The Colour Of Spring is the third album by the British band Talk Talk, released on EMI in 1986. Produced by Tim Friese-Greene, who co-wrote all the songs with Mark Hollis, it moved the band largely away from the synth-pop of their first albums towards piano, organ, guitars and guest players such as Steve Winwood and Danny Thompson. It contains "Life's What You Make It", one of the band's best-known songs. This copy is the 2014 EU reissue on Parlophone (CX 3506): 180g vinyl plus a DVD with the album in high-resolution stereo.
