Talk Talk鈥檚 last album, English prog-rock and prepared piano

Featuring several tracks from Talk Talk鈥檚 Laughing Stock, Greenslade鈥檚 first album reissued and news that Warp Records sign prepared piano player Kelly Moran.

Featuring several tracks from Talk Talk鈥檚 last album Laughing Stock, which saw the band move further away from synth-pop into the world of adventurous art-rock. Singer Mark Hollis said it is best listened to 鈥渨ith your eyes closed, watching your own mind movies鈥�. Loved and hated by critics at the time of release in 1991, Stuart re-appraises the record.

Also in the programme: a reissue of English prog-rock band Greenslade鈥檚 1973 debut, Canadian instrument builders Joyful Talk present their rugged ocean inspired electronics and Warp Records latest signing - prepared-piano player Kelly Moran鈥檚 debut single.
