so here's what's up with talk talk after talk talk:
mark hollis put out a self-titled solo album in 1998. after that he more or less retired, but did play piano on one track from psyence fiction by unkle. unfortunately, it's the pretty crappy song "chaos." he also produced and played on a pretty decent record called smiling and waving by anja garbarek in 2001.
paul harris and lee webb went on to form a group called .o.rang whose records are nearly impossible to find. they're probably pretty decent on their own, but when you spend four or five months trying to track them down, they tend to disappoint. they're kind of in the same spirit instrumentally as spirit of eden but a little more world music-y. if i still have them are i'll upload them to you-send-it so you can judge for yourself. they both played with beth gibbons on out of season which i'm guessing you guys already have around. if not, it's pretty decent.
lee harris played drums on bark psychosis' excellent codename dustsucker which you should seek out immediately. according to wikipedia he played with a group called midnight choir, but i've never heard that. i'll let you know if the inevitable obsessive searching turns anything up.
paul webb produced an album by somebody named james yorkston in 2006. i've never heard it but for some reason i really doubt its any good.
tim friese-greene, the unofficial fourth member, records under the name heligoland. i've long been searching for his records, but the cover art looks super-crappy.
