Lame. Lame Lame.
This listening project stopped in its tracks a few months back. I got busy and once I was out of the habit, it was hard to get back into it. But I'm back and ready to go.
Closing out the A's were Daniel Ash's solo effort Coming Down (held up much better than I thought) and the quirky Laurie Anderson. I once had tickets to a Laurie Anderson concert that I passed off to my brother. Strange Angels is actually one of my favorite albums of all time, with a huge, quality assist from Bobby McFerrin (sadly, he is less known for his massive talent and more for not worrying and being happy). She made a great album that was far more musical and less odd than her other efforts. Though, I gotta admit that "Sharkey's Night" on Mr. Heartbreak with William Burroughs, gruffly on "vocals," is a masterpiece.
