DAVID BYRNE Here Lies Love (2010 UK Deluxe Edition 3-disc [2CD/1DVD] set - Improbably poignant, decidedly surreal, surprisingly thought provoking, 'Here Lies Love' is a double-disc song cycle about the rise and fall of the Philippines' notorious Imelda Marcos, conceived by David Byrne, composed by Byrne and Fatboy Slim [aka Norman Cook] and performed by a dream cast drawn from the worlds of indie rock, alt country, R&B and pop. Byrne's taste in collaborators is as imaginative as itis impeccable, including Cyndi Lauper, Steve Earle, Dap-Kings vocalist Sharon Jones and Natalie Merchant. Along 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 Roisin 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'. This Deluxe Edition comes expanded with a BONUS DVD featuring 6 music videos from the album. Housed within a lush SEALED 104 page cloth-bound book, in which David generously annotates each song in the CD booklet and illustrates the story with archival photos)
