The Tom Tom Club are ex-Talking Heads husband and wife team Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth. They began as a side project in between Talking Heads projects and scored a huge club hit with 'Wordy Rappinghood'. Their mix of Funk, Reggae and Electronica was extremely unique at the time and unlike anything they'd recorded with David Byrne and Co. Universal. ## Images ![Tom Tom Club - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61-8iRZuRtL.jpg) ![Tom Tom Club - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51+nDPxvzdL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ reissued while it's still in print? Should've just issued Close to the Bone alone! *by D***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 24, 2009* Much like Book of Love's debut album was recently reissued while the original pressing was still in print and loaded with 12" mixes not on the reissues, this release of the Tom Tom club's debut does the same thing. In essence, if you want the alternate bonus tracks included here, you need to own both versions of the CD, because the original CD had ALL the 12" mixes from the singles.It seems this release was a marketing scheme to get more money out of hardcore fans because they knew what we really wanted--a FIRST TIME release of the entire Close to the Bone album on CD!!! Instead of paying 15 dollars for that album alone, you're forced to pay 30 bux for that and the first album, which you pretty much already have aside from a couple of different bonus tracks. So yeah, it bites that they scammed us like this, but, hey, we FINALLY get Close to the Bone on CD, and it's done right, with the 12" mixes and b-sides as bonus tracks. Of course, considering Close to the Bone has 16 minutes of free space, the trio of bonus tracks appearing on the debut album for the first time could have just been included on the Close to the Bone CD as more bonus tracks!!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great to finally have 'Close To The Bone' on cd . Great quality sound . *by M***O on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 27, 2013* The sound quality of this cd is good. For the 'Close To The Bone' second cd I find that they put an adequate interest in keeping the bass sound fat and big. And on CDs is becoming rare that they enhance the bass elements of the recording.I really think the sound is together with the groove of this amazing dance record . The depth of the voices doing the vocals (the Weynouth Sisters ) are well reproduced . The drums are well at the center . The electric bass is there all the way. The rhythm guitar and percussion are sharp. Synths are everywhere going from right to left and left to right . Funk leads the way . The packaging could have been handled better .... No lyrics and too many foldings . ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great *by B***X on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 6, 2021* love it --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/17539601-tom-tom-club](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/17539601-tom-tom-club) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
