Talk Talk's musical journey took them from early ‘80s synth-pop to early ‘90s post-rock resulting in a diverse and stimulating legacy.
The band’s breakthrough record, 1984’s It’s My Life saw the arrival of producer and multi-instrumentalist Tim Friese-Greene, who became a significant creative force in the band and an unofficial fourth member for the remainder of its existence. It’s My Life saw the band seek a less synthesized sound and less New Romantic image, which included keyboardist Simon Brenner leaving the band. The new sound gave the band commercial success, with the title track becoming a hit on both sides of the Atlantic. The album also contained the single Such a Shame (a song inspired by the book The Dice Man) which became a top 10 hit across Europe. A third single, Dum Dum Girl, was also a success in Europe and New Zealand in particular.
