KingPrawn Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Such sad news. A great musician. Spirit of Eden is one of the greatest albums ever written. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezzaboy Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Sad news indeed. I love The colour of spring from 86. Pretty dark album but sometimes it just hits the spot for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linus27 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Yep, very sad. The Colour of Spring is probably in my top 3 albums ever. All the musicians are amazing and Pail Webb is one of my fav bassist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazBeen Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 RIP, I must have been about 12 when I got into Talk Talk. Complex, rich, dark lyrics. Absolute A class band. You will be remembered. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulFenderJazz Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 First knew them in their New Romantic phase. It’s My Life definitely an underrated album: all the plaudits for Colour of Spring onwards are fully deserved. And a man of principle, he retired from music to be with his family. Great loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleabag Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Big fan of TT here. Its My Life and Colour Of Spring have sat in my collection since around '87. Unique band, almost un-pigeonholable. Hollis was a fab song writer and one of the most easily recognisable voices in music. Very sad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JellyKnees Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Sad news, loved Spirit of Eden in particular, it drips with understated beauty. RIP Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Great front man from a great band - definitely not given the respect both he and the band deserve. A sad loss. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
