Gary Myrick and the Figures - She Talks in Stereo

[ejslurb2007]

Good song, surprisingly vibrant for techno-pop. Why didn't Myrick and the Figures figure more prominently back then?

[wintersgrace]

My baby says hey....

For years I kept hearing this song being played on WKRP In Cincinatti in the part where dr. Johnny fever was being Interviewed by Real Families about Herb Tarlek and I keep hearing the Part SHE TALKS IN STEREO...SHE SOUNDS SO GOOD TO ME and always had a notion it was Joe Walsh but likily I happened to clicked on this song and to my surprise it was the Figures!!! Interesting Classic from 1980!!!

...and I can hear her say....

Just saw them play live a couple of hours ago - Gary and the band are still great! They finished with the one-two punch of this song, and then right into "Guitar, Talk, Love and Drums." Awesome.

I have this on CD from the Valley Girl soundtrack...such an excellent tune. Party on

[gottabeshari1961]

great song AND he is HOT. love all his stuff

[Rolend44]

Great tune...truly a classic imo

Thx much for posting!!!

[dillinger9999]

this song is still good after all these years, KROQ in LA played this all the time thanks for sharing.

[DriveInFreak]

Oddly enough in mono.

[morrisonAV]

@DriveInFreak Considering the fact that I recorded it almost 30 years ago, it's not odd at all. However, if they were lip-syncing on this performance, I might be able to do a new soundtrack for it.

@morrisonAV

Hmmm. My last attempt didn't work for some reason...let's try it again.

That's understandable. Stereo TV hadn't come out yet and I don't think that MTV had even started doing their old FM simulcast at that point.

This one's so rare that I'm surprised anyone has it at all.

I was trying to joke about the title being "She Talks in Stereo" but the recording isn't.. Looks like my attempt at humor fell on it's face...8)

[morrisonAV]

@DriveInFreak No problem, DriveIn. I laughed when I read it!! ;-) You're right about Stereo TV, too. I was still living at home with my folks when I taped this via antenna and we lived about 45 miles from the transmitter site. I've done new soundtracks for some of my videos whenever they were using the album tracks and were lip-syncing, but I never did a comparison on this cut. My "Hollywood Heartbeat" and "Rockworld" recordings are the rarest ones I have....so far.

@DriveInFreak I thought it was funny :-)

[user7272]

such a sweet song...ty 

[nickya11]

The band I was in back in 1981 played this tune! No one really knew of it here in the midwest! Still awsome today

Bring back Radio 1990!!!!

[laladinosaur]

I heard this song once and bought the LP. Years later I gave it away. Now 30 years later I find it posted on Youtube.Who are you people?Sick with nostalgia or what?

[morrisonAV]

Yeah, pretty much.....sick. ;-)

[1HotMilf]

Oh yes! I love to OD on nostalgia! At 42, I still have and FIT more 80's clothes that I will ever admit to! He he he!

[SkyfireTheFox]

They don't make music like this anymore. God, I miss the 80s.

[shrecordings]

this rulez!!!!!!!!!!! i love this tune

[vanilla0777]

i lov 80s music soo much! found out bout this song on the valley girl cd xD

[24per24]

Simply Fantastic!!!! :)))

[MsClaptonisgod]

God! LOVE this song! I discovered it on my mother's Valley girl soundtrack and I can't stop playing it!

[morrisonAV]

Thanks for the feedback. I have more videos that weren't favorites of MINE, but I might start uploading them for other fans. I've kept these tapes for close to 30 years and I'm happy to finally have a way to share them.....as long as the record companies and YT let me. I've tried to upload several videos that get blocked. Dumb.

[lundehund44]

damn, wish I had all of the Hollywood Heartbeat and Rockworld shows on video...

[Wtrackerman]

Ah yes, the scene with Lee Purcell, the 80s cougar.

[fendergibs]

In the movie Valley Girl, pool sceen in the background

she talks in stereo talks in stereo

my baby talks in stereo talks in stereo

[midgig]

steadily moves like the grooves on a record my head spins when she talks to me oh yeah slip and sliding we go driving by and i can hear her say my baby says hey (she talks in stereo she sounds so good to me she talks in stereo x2) i look in your eyes you look at my face you will see clearly is it our 20/20 vision oh yeah slip and sliding we go driving by and i can hear her say my baby says hey (x8)

[midgig]

lyrics:

i look in your eyes

you look at my face

you will see clearly is it our 20/20 vision

oh yeah

i feel the pull on me its the gravity

of your vulture magnetic attraction

oh yeah

(she talks in stereo she sounds so good to me she talks in stereo x2)

her hair
