Laurie Anderson
Mister Heartbreak
Warner Brothers Records 1984

At the end of the year I tend to go back in time and play
records that I used to way back when I was younger. While
going through my collection I stumbled onto this one. Man,
how I have always loved this album with performance-artist
Laurie Anderson. Look at the list of performers she brought
along here. Adrian Belew (guitar wizard), Bill Blaber, William
S. Burroughs, Michelle Cobbs, Anton Fier, Peter Gabriel, Connie
Harvey, Bill Laswell, Dolette McDonald, Brenda Nelson, Song
Won Park, Daniel Ponce, Nile Rodgers, David van Tieghem,
Phoebe Snow, Janet Wright and Atsuko Yuma. Awesome
team. 1984 was an important year for me, it was when I
opened my own Coffeeshop here in my hometown. I’ve
run it for 34 years until I sold it 5 years ago. This record
brings back incredible fine memories, listen ..

Aan het eind van het jaar heb ik altijd de neiging om terug
in de tijd te gaan en platen te draaien die ik vroeger veel
draaide toen ik jong was. Wandelend door de platenkast
stuitte ik op dit album met performance artiest Laurie An-
derson. Man, wat heb ik hier altijd van genoten. Kijk eens
wie ze allemaal recruteerde voor dit project. Adrian Belew
(guitar wizard), Bill Blaber, William S. Burroughs, Michelle
Cobbs, Anton Fier, Peter Gabriel, Connie Harvey, Bill Laswell,
Dolette McDonald, Brenda Nelson, Song Won Park, Daniel
Ponce, Nile Rodgers, David van Tieghem, Phoebe Snow,
Janet Wright and Atsuko Yuma. Wat een team. 1984 was
voor mij ook een heel belangrijk jaar, ik opende mijn eigen
koffie shop hier in Hilversum. Ik heb ‘m 34 jaar gerund.
Deze plaat brengt veel herinneringen boven, luister ..

      In some parts this keeps happening,
      it mostly works on a later moment I hear.
      So sorry I couldn’t solve it so far ..

    Fantastic album, I got it on CD.
    By the way, what’s the name of that coffee shop? I used to live in Loosdrecht and Hilversum before moving to Thailand in the late 1980s.

        Andorra? That name doesn’t ring a bell, I guess I must have left the Netherlands before that time….
