Laurie Anderson: Big Science CLR La version sur Le vinyle LP en Remasterisé Coloré édition. Cette édition particulière a été publiée en Europe et États-Unis dans la maison d'édition Nonesuch Le 30 avril 2021.

"Laurie Anderson is the most convincing artist from New York's artistic bohemia to land a record deal since Patti Smith signed with Arista six years ago. Big Science, Anderson's ghostly sound collage of a debut album, conveys ... her astonishing intensity." Stephen Holden, Rolling Stone (June 10, 1982) On July 17, 2007, Nonesuch Records released a remastered edition of Laurie Anderson's debut album Big Science for its 25th anniversary. This newly expanded and enhanced edition of the album includes cover notes written by Anderson, the classic video for the surprise 1981 hit single "O Superman," and the original B-side of "Walk the Dog." By the early '80s, Anderson was already respected as a conceptual artist and composer who could use high-end and homemade equipment in her often violin-based compositions, and she was a well-known figure in the intersecting music-visual-performance-art circles of Lower Manhattan that also spawned Philip Glass and David Byrne. While working on her now-legendary seven-hour art and theater performance United States, Part I - IV, which premiered over two nights at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) in 1983, she cut the spare "O Superman (For Massenet)," an electronically updated aria "O Souverain" by 19th-century French opera composer Jules Massenet, for the small New York independent label 110 Records. In the U.K., DJ John Peel picked up a copy of this limited edition 33⅓ RPM 7" and spun the more than eight-minute track on BBC Radio 1. The result of this unveiling was an unlikely number two hit, plenty of attention in the U.S. press, and a worldwide deal with Warner Bros. Records. At the time of the original release, NME wrote of Big Science: "Her songs have a dreamy, subconscious quality that helps them to appeal to deeper, secret levels of the psyche." With instrumentation ranging from tape loops to found sounds to bag whistles, Big Science anticipated the technically advanced beats, arbitrary instruments, and sampling of most contemporary electronic and dance music. In these songs, most of which were taken from the United States, Anderson was able to express the social and political anxiety she perceived in American society, as well as the longing for security and emotional connection. The themes of Big Science songs include images of planes falling from the sky ("From the Air"), the comforting yet sinister embrace of technology ("O Superman"), and the inability of men and women to speak the same language ("The It Tango").

Album couvre tous les genres Rock, Pop, Musique électronique, Art Rock, Experimental et New Age. Coloured Red Opaque Vinyl.
