Talk Show Feelings

[DeathBedMotorcade]

I just recently started to listening to Talk Show and have to say I am pleasantly surprised.  This album has some great songs on it IMHO.

I only wish the DeLeo brothers would have had Scott sing Morning Girl and Ring Twice.  I feel like his vocals could have made those songs hits.

I hate to say it but this album is better than No. 4 and Shangri for me.  I do like STP album better than this album

Talk Show is a great album. The DeLeo brothers and even Kretz were completely ON with their songwriting during this period.

[Casual]

I think I heard a couple songs in 1997.  I'm totally guilty of ignoring this record.

Great disc - although many here will disagree.  Morning Girl, End of the World, and Ring Twice are my favorites - and the video for Hello Hello is priceless.

[Shangri]

I like it but I don't find myself going back to it, now and then I remember it exists and enjoy it. At first listen I did not like the vocals at all, they've grown on me.

[Tyrant]

The only songs I like from this record are "Hello Hello" and "Peeling An Orange".
For some uncertain and weird reason every time I hear "Peeling An Orange" I find myself thinking of my trip to Poland in 1997. I wonder if I heard this song out there somehow, but it's looks kinda impossible. Was it ever played on the radio?

I have blantantly ignored this record for the most part since 1997. At the time, I couldn't get over the fact that the rest of STP was releasing an album without Scott Weiland. I have not given this record a chance at all, and I probably never will. Not saying it's right or anything, but from what I've heard from majority, I am not missing much.

The instrumentation is first class, if Scott had done the vocals it just might be one of my all time favorite albums.

[Adhesive12]

Yeah the instrumentation is great but I still can't get used to the other singer - I may never.

This album is just a few years after Tiny Music, when Dean & Rob were at the absolute height of their songwriting prowess. I love it.

It would have made a killer STP album though, which is the only downside to it.

Exactly! Imagine what the last few songs would have been like with Scott on em

[DankoJones]

Yes, there some real great tunes on this disc, just wish Scott couldve worked on 'em

[stp4]

I'm a big fan of Talk Show..John, Peeling an Orange and Fill the Fields are some of my favorites off the top of my head...I hear a big Zeppelin influence in a lot of the songs....I think I'll give this album a spin later this evening.

I never really got the hate on the vocals, sure it's not Weiland, but it's really not bad at all. I thought Dave Coutts did a great job with the melodies and sounded good
