The NASA show she did was really something - sparse, spooky, austere.

I don't think I could do her justice in less than 2 CDs worth.

When I was cleaning out my basement last night I found a tape of her Eugene Oregon show from 1984!!! I have no idea where it came from (group house, lots of folks lived here, etc.).

Those two songs on the Faraway So Close OST own the album versions and are probably her two best songs, period. Great use of acoustic double-bass.

I bought the Talk Normal anthology in Los Angeles because I don't actually own any Laurie Anderson. I like it a lot but I feel like I'm missing out by not hearing these tracks in their album context. Where next? I like the sound of "The Ugly One...".
