Laurie Anderson "Homeland"

Yeah, the good old days of GWB...you have got to be kidding, Kurt.

Thanks for the heads-up. I'm a big fan since the 80's. I will definitely pick up a copy.

Good to see so many appreciate her.

Rereading my original comment and a few more spins (of the hard drive) and I may have overstated the "narrative style". There is a dramatic return of the Voice of Authority in the 11.5 minute centerpiece "Another Day In America" but most is musical, just more subtle and ethereal with loose structure. I am liking it more and more every listen and it has the type of depth that I'll unravel over years of listens.

She is one of the very few artists that takes me far away with the first sound of her voice. Maybe some of it's me and the years of hearing her but it's so hypnotic and moves me into another place...and only her music, her voice, can get me there.

thanks for the heads up!

Poor Obama, he's still putting out Bush's fires. I'm not sure two more years is enough time to get the job done.
