 RollingStone.com: Experimental Jet Set, Trash & No Star : Sonic Youth : Review
The first half of the album is the stronger of the two, opening with the solo acoustic guitar, Stones-meet-Westerberg ditty "Winner's Blues." From the enigmatic "Bull in the Heather," featuring Gordon's breathy talk-singing, to the gales of feedback and full-on glam slam of "Starfield Road," the Sonics test their limits with passionate conviction.
In the dozen-odd years that Sonic Youth have been shaping noise into music, the band's sound has grown along with its original vision – nothing short of the redefinition of rock and roll.
No Star alternates between whimsy and mayhem, due to the push and pull of Moore and Ranaldo's guitars, backed by Shelley's steady beat.

Musically, they built on the experimental direction of the previous album with interesting rhythms, sweeping orchestration, complex arrangements, and even a children's chorus to create an evocative, hypnotic groove.
With It's My Life, Talk Talk proved that they could pull off an entire album of strong material.
Though the songs were catchier on the earlier efforts and the ambient experimentation was more fully achieved later on, The Colour of Spring succeeded in marrying the two ideas into one unique sound for their most thoroughly satisfying album.

 Amazon.co.uk: Colour of Spring, the [Remastered]: Music
Though it's less experimental (and, to be honest, less essential) than the two albums that would follow, The Colour of Spring is still an enjoyable and admirable piece of work and, could very well be the best place to start for those interested in discovering the music of Talk Talk.
The Colour of Spring was a watershed album in the History of Talk Talk in that it showed the first signs of the groups move away from the pop sensibility of their previous albums to the looser, more experimental feel of their later albums.
The Colour of Spring is one of those great records of the 80's that most people seem to forget...

Laughing Stock was the culmination of Talk Talk's move away from synth-pop toward a moody, delicate fusion of ambient, jazz, and minimalist chamber music; Spiderland, meanwhile, was full of deliberate, bass-driven grooves, mumbled poetry, oblique structures, and extreme volume shifts.
Post-rock brought together a host of mostly experimental genres -- Kraut-rock, ambient, prog-rock, space rock, math rock, tape music, minimalist classical, British IDM, jazz (both avant-garde and cool), and dub reggae, to name the most prevalent -- with results that were largely based in rock, but didn't rock per se.
Post-rock was the dominant form of experimental rock during the '90s, a loose movement that drew from greatly varied influences and nearly always combined standard rock instrumentation with electronics.

Without work but not ready to give up music, several members of the Experimental Band started to talk of forming a performance organization that would organize concerts and be exempt from the exploitation of music companies and club owners.
Many of the members met regularly at Muhal Richard Abrams' house and talked of music and other concerns and played their favorite jazz records.
Abrams and a young RandB trumpet player named Phil Cohran finally turned the talk into reality, and in May of 1965 the musicians spread the word across the South Side of the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (Radano 83).

 SH Forums - Talk Talk SACDs... WOW!
I love Spirit of Eden as well as its followup Laughing Stock, but I still wish Talk Talk had made a couple more albums in the mode of Colour of Spring before moving on to the more experimental music.
The follow-up, Spirit of Eden, is a very "difficult" album, the group has left behind all traces of it's pop music past and embarked on a path of almost willfully obscure sonic experimentation.
I think it depends on whether you prefer your Spirit of Eden with a little murkiness (original) vs. added detail (sacd), and on a record like this murkiness is not always a bad thing.

 Guardian Unlimited The Guardian Hugh Davies
His desire to move beyond the limited audience for experimental music was reflected by the many work shops in sound and instrument-building he gave for children, his position as a visiting lecturer and part-time researcher at Middlesex University from 1999 onwards, and his membership of the Artist Placement Group.
Throughout his life, he played with a remarkably wide cross-section of musicmakers, ranging from composer Jonathan Harvey to 1980s pop band Talk Talk.
A renewed interest in his work among younger sound artists led to the release of archive material by himself, Gentle Fire, and his mentor in electronic music, the late Daphne Oram; he wrote her obituary that appeared in the Guardian (January 24 2003).

With “Curse or blessing: yes” you not only advance to the limits of the so-called modern, dissonant avant-garde of the mid 20ieth century, but you open new doors for linking orchestra music with electronic music, in the field of direction, dramatisation, singing, ballet and mime.

The numbers of high-quality FM receivers for home stereos and cars were increasing, and although it would be more than a decade before FM passed AM for listeners in music formats, the opportunity was there.
WNEW was unique, depending on the personality of each jock to set the tone - and the music - for each shift.

 Amazon.com: Books: Think of the Self Speaking: Harry Smith, Selected Interviews
They cover a quarter-century, touching on the full range of Smith's activity as a groundbreaking experimental filmmaker, obsessive collector, folk music anthologist, visionary painter, student of Native American lore, anthropologist, cosmographer, alchemist, hermetic scholar, occultist, autodidact, classic American eccentric, and all-around explorer of the possibilities of human consciousness and creativity.
Famous for assembling the brilliant, idiosyncratic Anthology of American Folk Music, Smith was an avant-garde filmmaker and painter, occultist, anthropologist, alchemist, compulsive collector of music, books, textiles, paper airplanes, and string figures--in short, the original interdisciplinary scholar, all without benefit of formal training or degree.
Perhaps it's better to read about talking with Harry Smith than it was to actually talk with him; given the choice, most of us might prefer our Smith-viewing from a safe distance.
