Rochmon Record Club: Talking Heads – Remain in Light
September 19, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$15.98On Tuesday, September 19, Rochmon Record Club will converge live at Caffè Lena, 47 Phila Street, Saratoga Springs, to listen to, and learn about, the Talking Heads 4th album, Remain in Light. Doors open at 6:30, and the show begins at 7 pm with a live audio & video presentation by Chuck Vosganian aka “Rochmon.”
The Talking Heads sprang out of the cultural phenomenon that was the Bowery and East Village in the mid 70s. Youth culture of all kinds flocked to its cheap apartments and lofts in old warehouses and rundown apartment buildings. This was the center of Bohemia, where art of all kinds appeared and there were no walls. Punk, Hard Rock, Glam, Folk, Country, Rap, Funk, Jazz, Hispanic, and Classical could be heard on a walk through its neighborhoods. By 1980 The Talking Heads had made it out of the clubs, there was no more Mudd Club or CBGB’s for them. After 3 critically acclaimed, and successful albums, The Talking Heads were no longer struggling for the same things they worked hard for when they were starting out. Now they were trying to keep what they had achieved. Remain in Light is a startling collection of songs including “Born Under Punches (The Heat Goes On),” “Crosseyed and Painless,” “Once in a Lifetime” and 5 more. Remain in Light is the creative high point of the Talking Heads, a wonderfully innovative band. As always, Rochmon will have some surprises in store! Rochmon Record Club will also be streaming live on Caffe Lena TV, tickets at CaffLena.tv
