Little Creatures is the sixth album by Talking Heads, released
in 1985. The album examined themes of Americana and incorporated elements of
country music, with many songs featuring the steel guitar. It was voted as the
best album of the year in The Village Voice Pazz & Jop critics poll and is
the band's biggest-selling studio album, with over two million copies sold in
the US.
The cover art was created by outsider artist Howard Finster,
and was selected as album cover of the year by Rolling Stone magazine.
In 2005, it was re-released and remastered by Warner Music
Group on their Warner Bros./Sire Records/Rhino Records labels in DualDisc
format, with three bonus tracks on the CD side (early versions of "Road To
Nowhere" and "And She Was" and an extended mix of
"Television Man"). The DVD-Audio side includes both stereo and 5.1
surround high resolution (96 kHz/24bit) mixes, as well as a Dolby Digital
version and the videos of "And She Was" and "Road to
Nowhere." In Europe, it was released as a CD+DVDA two disc set rather than
a single DualDisc. The reissue was produced by Andy Zax with Talking Heads.
