Today, June 22, 2010 marks the release of"Homeland"-
The first work of new music from Laurie Anderson in almost 10 years(!),
causing the New York Times to say, “Any pop performer—
Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Patti Smith—
would be proud to tell a story so vividly.”
Underscoring the unique art-music nexus Anderson occupies,
that review also quoted the art critic RoseLee Goldberg’s suggestion that
“Anderson has by now entered the pantheon of late-20th-century American artists,
joining such figures as Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, and Andy Warhol.”
So here on The VPJP we are excited to present it this morning for your enjoyment.
We will also be playing select tracks from Ms Anderson's extensive back catalog,
and - taking your requests !
Be sure and tune in for an earful of Laurie -
Only on The Vinyl Pajama Party!
