CHRISTGAU CONSUMER GUIDE

LAURIE ANDERSON “Home Of The Brave” (Warner Bros.) Multimedia ain’t omnimedia, and if she ever gets to do a movie again I hope she hires Jonathan Demme or at least Julien Temple. A credible groove ain’t a compelling groove, and I’m inclined to blame the auteur rather than Nile Rodgers, Jimmy Bralower, or even Adrian Belew.
