postpunk: woopwoop: WoopWoop! Cover Art of the Day: Talking Heads “Remain in Light” 1980 The album cover and liner notes were created by the notable graphic designer, Tibor Kalman. Kalman based the cover artwork on the life story of Tina Weymouth, with a fleet of planes on the back cover connected with her childhood as the daughter of a traveling U.S. Navy admiral with an aviation background, and digitally distorted faces of the band members representing her at-the-time current status as a member of the band and the electro-centric direction the band had taken. The final track on the album, “The Overload”, was Talking Heads’ attempt to emulate the sound of the band Joy Division. This effort was made in spite of the fact that no one in the band had actually heard the music of Joy Division. Rather, it was based on an idea of what Joy Division might sound like. wiki Also, the greatest album ever, crotchety Marxists be damned.

first run of 2009

06.50 - 07.230
Not as bad as i thought it would be despite the last month of turkey and whiskey abuse - no unnecessary suffering. Must get a decent headlight though - I must’ve missed a major downpour as the bottom field was flooded and had become a fast moving stream. I had no idea until I was running through it.

New trainers have been shaping up well, four runs so far in them and no problems to report.
