Laurie Anderson ORIG UK LP Big science VG+ '82 Warner K57002 Experimental rock
Original UK LP released in 1982 on Warner Records. Cat: K57002. Comes with printed lyric inner bag which has some age marks and is in EX condition.
There was a backlash against Laurie Anderson in "serious" musical and artistic circles after the completely unexpected mainstream commercial success of her debut album, Big Science. (The eight-plus-minute single "O Superman" was a chart hit in England, unbelievably enough.) A fair listen to Big Science leaves the impression that jealousy must have been at the root of the reception because Big Science is in no way a commercial sellout. A thoughtful and often hilariously funny collection of songs from Anderson's work in progress, United States I-IV, Big Science works both as a preview of the larger work and on its own merits.
Tracks : From the air/ Big science/ Sweaters/ Walking & falling/ Born, never asked/ O superman (for Massenet)/ Example # 22/ Let X=X/IT tango.
