Re. Modern Music. Are you familiar with a performing artist most popular in the 1980’s? Her name is Lori Anderson. She is now best known as Lou Reeds widow. Lori was clever and professional in a Talking Heads manner of ironic communication. I discovered both Lori Anderson and Thee Philip Glass of Koyaniskatsi in the same year of 1983.

I believe it’s, “Laurie” Anderson.

In her own right, a brilliant composer and musician.

Artsy-fartsy and as liberal as they come....but brilliant.

She's done some interesting work. I only recently learned that she had collaborated with Jean Michel Jarre, providing vocal samples for Zoolook in 1984, and again in 2000 doing vocals for Metamorphoses.
