Talking Heads’ Speaking In Tongues clear limited edition vinyl at ‘On The Record’ vinyl / music exhibition; Stony Brook, New York (Summer 2016). David Byrne had approached Bob Rauschenberg to re-do an album cover after observing his artwork at Leo Castelli’s West Broadway gallery and this was the result. Four discs comprise the entire package. One disc was the album on clear vinyl and the other three discs were made of clear primary colors of cyan, magenta, and yellow containing the album information. All three primary-colored discs line up properly to produce the full-color image, though Rauschenberg himself intentionally threw off some of the imaging slightly. 50,000 copies were made.
