Laurie Anderson / Big Science - CD (Used)

PartNumber: 257 002 / 3674-2

Details: Amazon.ca Big Science prompted trendy early-1980s art students to plug in their synthesizers and start their own post-punk performance-art-cum-rock-&-roll projects. The album actually produced a hit single in the form of "O Superman." That track and "Let X=X" are the two best-known things from this album, which is a condensation of United States, Anderson's four-and-a-half-hour performance-art piece. Big Science, however, presents the cream of the crop. Although a lot of Anderson's shrill non sequiturs seemed annoying at the time of her breakthrough, she predicted techno music years before it happened. Still, as rock critic J.D. Considine pointed out, her creations are often closer to theatre than to music. --Bill Holdship
