Masterpiece, milestone, pioneering act - "My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts" is an album that even 25 years after its first release has not lost a trace of its appeal. "Field recordings", exotic instruments, voices, everyday noises, recording all this and packaging it into music or sound collages, that already existed before - Pierre Schaeffer started developing his "musique concrète" already at the end of the 40s. But never before (and actually never since) have musicians succeeded in such a colorful and consistent realization as Brian Eno and Talking Heads mastermind David Byrne with their collaboration. On almost hypnotizing rhythm surfaces, played by Bill Laswell on bass and Heads drummer Chris Frantz, among others, they unfold a completely new sound world with samples of Lebanese mountain singers, radio talk shows, Southern priests, Egyptian pop or an exorcism, incompatible elements are combined into a unity. Wild, exciting, fabulous. With seven bonus tracks and a new slipcase cover
