{"product_id":"075597905557","title":"Byrne, David \u0026 Fatboy Slim \"Here Lies Love\" 2LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eDavid Byrne \u0026amp; Fatboy Slim's acclaimed 2010 album, Here Lies Love, receives its first-ever vinyl release to coincide with a production opening on Broadway in Summer 2023. Here Lies Love is a double-disc song cycle - improbably poignant, decidedly surreal, surprisingly thought-provoking - about the rise and fall of the Philippines' notorious Imelda Marcos. It was conceived by David Byrne; composed by Byrne and DJ\/recording artist Fatboy Slim, AKA Norman Cook; and performed by a dream cast drawn from the worlds of indie rock, alt-country, R\u0026amp;B and pop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eByrne's taste in collaborators is as imaginative as it is impeccable, including Cyndi Lauper (who recounts, to lighthearted disco beats, Imelda's courtship with Ferdinand Marcos), Steve Earle (as the power-hungry Ferdinand), Dap-Kings vocalist Sharon Jones (recalling Imelda's introduction into New York society) and Natalie Merchant (as spurned Imelda confidante Estrella, anticipating the onset of martial law).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlong with vocals turns from such stars as Tori Amos and the B-52's Kate Pierson, Byrne works with rising indie rockers St. Vincent and My Brightest Diamond; New York chanteuses Nellie McKay and Martha Wainwright; and dance-music divas Róisín Murphy and Santigold. Byrne himself appears as the voice of imperialistic America on \"American Troglodyte,\" a send-up that wouldn't have seemed out of places in Talking Heads' True Stories.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"---","offers":[{"title":"VINYL","offer_id":42688415891631,"sku":"075597905557","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/8833\/2463\/products\/4233093-3019562.jpg?v=1691622819","url":"https:\/\/endofanear.sbs\/products\/075597905557","provider":"End Of An Ear","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
