Absolutely Horrible, specially after all the hype that preceded its launch.
If you want to listen to some recent great music by ENO buy Beyond Even (with Robert Fripp) instead.
There is not a single tune here worth remembering.
I can't believe these are the same guys behind My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts or a few Talking Heads albums... not to mention Rei Momo or Uh Oh as far as Byrne is concerned...
And to consider that Byrne took a whole year to think about this... what ... Read More:

I purchased this to REPLACE my vinyl and old scratched up CD versions. Yes, I own the original vinyl AND the original CD release. I love the music. I wanted to finally add it to my MP3 collection of which I actually BUY all the music in. Oh, and I don't give copies away like the music companies say we all do......... anyhow, I bought this only to find that it's full of copy protection crap. So much in fact that this thing it totally useless to me. Instead of a happy moment I ended up with frustration. ... Read More:

I first heard of this cd when it was first advertised on tv in the 90's but honestly thought nothing of buying it. However in 2001 I happened to spot this cd when I was stationed in Japan and am happy to have spent my money on this cd. Due to the variety of the songs I feel that this cd is good to listen to at work , when you are spending time with your loved ones, and relaxing and nurturing yourself when you are alone. Some of the notable tracks that really stand out in a positive way for me are

I highly recommend this album for fans of Talking Heads, David Byrne, or fans of live sets. I've bought a lot of music recently, and this is the best album I've bought in several months. He plays a mix of songs from the multiple groups he's played with, as well as some of his personal favorites(the last song).

This album contains a lot of experimental music, with a few early Talking Heads type songs sprinkled in. If you like Brian Eno's experimental music, you will like this album.

Used Price: $7.99

David Byrne's "Big Love Hymnal" is an innovative soundtrack for HBO's series about a Mormon polygamist family in suburban Salt Lake City. Byrne,of course,won an Oscar for his "Last Emperor" soundtrack... and an interesting coincidence,his music accompanied the wedding night of Pu Yi with his Empress and his concubine. "Big Love Hymnal" is the fruit of Byrne's study of Mormon hymns. It's got a little bit of Americana,some ambient music,trance, and folk.

"Big Love" opens with the evocative hymn "Art thou greater than ... Read More:

Highly enjoyable version, although my personal preference is the Canadian version with Donny Osmond. The narrator in the London version is top notch as are the other cast members - well worth the money for all this listening pleasure

I first bought this album back in '84 as an LP. I had long been a fan of Talking Heads and was curious of this new piece of material by Byrne. The person behind the counter of the music store warned me that this most likely would not be what I expected - this was no ordinary Byrne music, he said. And indeed it was not! Ever since I have been listening to this album over and over again. It is amazing how these somewhat simple compositions can make such impression. A pity that the album was not available on CD. A big surprise then to discover ... Read More:

I love this guy's music. He is one of the best (and underrated) artists out there. This album was worth the money. Like Humans do, Walk..Water and a few others are outstanding songs. Some kind of lame, similar to old stuff he used to do that was slightly incoherent but still good art.
If you reeeeallly want some good stuff, try his Rei Momo, Feelings and the more recent Grown Backwards. These are KILLER and you won't be sorry if you are a DB fan. High level stuff.

It is hard to avoid measuring this album against David Byrne's previous solo work (which includes his work in 1987 on Bertolucci's The Last Emperor), and earlier contributions to the Talking Heads. Byrne is constantly evolving in his music. These are the songs of a musical prodigy now in his middle years. What they lack in the darker, edgier stylings of Fear of Music, they make up for in maturity. After establishing himself as a musical genius in the genres of punk, new wave, pop, funk, world music, and art rock while fronting the Talking Heads, he went on to explore ... Read More:
