David Byrne & Fatboy Slim’s acclaimed 2010 albumHere Lies Lovereceives its first-ever vinyl release to coincide with a new production opening on Broadway this summer.Here Lies Loveis a double-disc song cycle – improbably poignant, decidedly surreal, surprisingly thought provoking – about the rise and fall of the Philippines' notorious Imelda Marcos. It was conceived byDavid Byrne; composed by Byrne and DJ/recording artistFatboy 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 it is impeccable, includingCyndi Lauper(who recounts, to lighthearted disco beats, Imelda's courtship with Ferdinand Marcos),Steve Earle(as the power-hungry Ferdinand), Dap-Kings vocalistSharon Jones(recalling Imelda's introduction into New York society) andNatalie Merchant(as spurned Imelda confidante Estrella, anticipating the onset of martial law). Along with vocals turns from such stars asTori Amosand the B-52'sKate Pierson, Byrne works with rising indie rockersSt. VincentandMy Brightest Diamond; New York chanteusesNellie McKayandMartha Wainwright; and dance-music divasRóisín MurphyandSantigold. 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.
