OVERVIEW: ''Chronology'' pulls together live performances from across Talking Heads'' career. It starts with their earliest days at CBGB and The Kitchen in New York City in the mid-seventies, through their breakthrough years in the late seventies and on to global success in the eighties. They completed their last tour in 1983 although they would continue to make very successful albums throughout the eighties before officially breaking up in 1991. The DVD concludes with their ''reunion'' performance of ''Life During Wartime'' on their induction into the Rock ''n'' Roll Hall Of Fame in 2002.
Initial quantities of the DVD are packaged in a hardback cover with a 48 page book containing photographs and an unexpurgated Lester Bangs essay written as a review of the ''Fear Of Music'' album for The Village Voice in 1979 but only ever published in a heavily edited version. This will only be produced as a single run of 15,000 copies for Europe.
Hugely influential band with an extremely dedicated fanbase.
''Stop Making Sense'' is the only other Talking Heads live DVD available and remains a very strong seller.
Features brand new audio commentary by all four band members.
