Released in 1985 on ECM, it stands as one of the most distinctive works in Byrne’s solo discography. Centered around a brass ensemble inspired by New Orleans’ Dirty Dozen Brass Band, the album brings together gospel, Bulgarian folk music, minimalism, spoken word, and theatrical humor in a uniquely imaginative way. Highlights include A1\/B1, where lightly bouncing brass and percussion, a subtly mechanical sense of repetition, and Byrne’s surreal narration blend beautifully; A2, with its striking ritualistic chorus; and B4, featuring a brass ensemble full of soft melancholy. A superb fusion of imaginary New Orleans jazz and stage music, reconstructed through a post-new wave sensibility. A truly unique entry in the ECM catalogue. Highly recommended.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA1: \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/xsvxdiscott.xsrv.jp\/organicmusic\/samplemp3\/mp3\/20260506\/OMH26010450_a1.mp3\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eTree\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB6: \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/xsvxdiscott.xsrv.jp\/organicmusic\/samplemp3\/mp3\/20260506\/OMH26010450_b6.mp3\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eIn The Future\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"organic music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52572563013856,"sku":"OMH26010450","price":3960.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0511\/8073\/2616\/files\/IMG_0313_180142ff-e9a6-45e6-abae-474aa0c76de1.jpg?v=1778066907","url":"https:\/\/organicmusic.jp\/en\/products\/david-byrne-music-for-the-knee-plays","provider":"PHYSICAL STORE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
