^Love that.

Listening to that made me pull out this last night...


Brian Eno and David Byrne - My Life in the Bush of Ghosts




That whole album is an amazing collaboration. The basic theme is random vocal recordings put to music. They synced when they produced this. For me personally, this album is timeless. I was lucky and found an original copy with the banned song "Qu'ran". I understand why they left it out of later pressings, you REALLY don't want the Nation of Islam pissed off at you.

Quote
David Byrne 2006 Interview Pitchfork Media

Way back when the record first came out, in 1981, it might have been '82, we got a request from an Islamic organization in London, and they said, 'We consider this blasphemy that you put grooves to the chanting of the Holy Book.' And we thought, 'Okay, in deference to somebody's religion, we'll take it off.' You could probably argue for and against monkeying with something like that. But I think we were certainly feeling very cautious about this whole thing. We made a big effort to try and clear all the voices, and make sure everybody was okay with everything. Because we thought, 'We're going to get accused of all kinds of things, and so we want to cover our asses as best we can.' So I think in that sense we reacted maybe with more caution than we had to. But that's the way it was.

It's such a cool song too, but again how many people do you want to simultaneously piss off with a song and still sleep at night? Millions? Sure, why not?
