An absolutely monumental masterpiece of late 20th century music is the seamless funk opera score David Byrne created for choreographer Twyla Tharps The Catherine Wheel in 1981.

This 2LP set marks the vinyl debut of the full score (previous releases contained only a 1LP condensed version or the full score on CD only).

The tracks "Big Blue Plymouth", "My Big Hands", "Big Business" and "What a Day That Was" were all performed live by Talking Heads in 1982 and 1983.

Recorded on the same wave of collaboration as My Life In the Bush of Ghosts, this album features contributions from Brian Eno.
