Laurie Anderson, cds "Live in New York" from 2001 and "Homeland". Amazing. Her performance of "O Superman" in NYC right after 9-11 is truly chilling.
Laurie is one of those artists who must be experienced, more than simply listened to. I was lucky enough to be front-row-center for a concert she gave in Richmond over a decade ago, in a very small theatre; just her and her keyboards, and songs mostly from "Bright Red" and "The Ugly One with the Jewels". Amazing, entrancing. Listening to these brought back the absolute spellbound feeling I had that night.
