SONG OF THE WEEK #106: Laurie Anderson - "Big Science"

There is probably no way of saying this without coming off "smart" and annoyingly pretentious, but I'll say it anyway: Laurie Anderson's Big Science (1982) is one of my all-time favourite albums. It may be artsy and experimental, but it is strangely accessible, too. Too bad she would never come close to this artistic triumph again.

    1. Yeah, fantastic album. I take that album out once in a while, admire it like a precious jewel, then put it back. "Let X equal X" is indeed excellent.
