Music reviews of Home Of The Brave: A Film By Laurie Anderson (1986 Film)
Music Review: Not much to it.
Rating: 2 Stars
THIS CD IS ONLY 34 MINUTES LONG. The track "Radar" is just an annoying bit of noise. That leaves about 32 minutes of actual music. It is hardly worth the price.
Released in 1986, this is from the movie "Home of the Brave" which was a collection of performances. Much of that had been covered on other Anderson CD releases. So, she wasn't left with much more to release. Like almost all of Anderson's CD's the sound quality is very good.
The CD starts out very good. Smoke Rings is an amusing piece with some excellent music backing it up. The CD continues with more bits of some very good music.
The problem is that some of the tracks sound like snippets taken from larger pieces. So the whole CD does not play very well.
The version of Sharkey's Night is also not very good.
So, if you start with a 34 minute CD, throw out 2 and a half minutes of noise (Radar) and some of the little snippets of music hear and there and an inferior Sharkey's Night, you end up with about 25 minutes of good music.
There's not much to it, but I really, really like the good parts. Some parts rate up there with the best of Anderson. It's just that there isn't much of it.
