2012 - Caetano Veloso and David Byrne - Live At Carnegie Hall (Flac)

One result of David Byrne's love affair with Brazilian music was a friendship with veteran singer and activist Caetano Veloso, who, like Byrne, mixes catchy tunes with ironic, sometimes surreal lyrics. This 2004 acoustic show is an entrancing showcase of their respective talents. Veloso breezes through hits such as "Você é Linda" before Byrne arrives to give Talking Heads classics such as "Road to Nowhere" a gentle bossa touch, with help from cello and percussion. The pair duet on Veloso's "Ilê Aiyê", horse around on the Heads' "(Nothing But) Flowers", and even on disc a sense of joy and spontaneity is palpable. (Guardian)

"Here Lies Love is an immersive show in which the audience experiences the story from the floor of Millennium, a disco or dance club," Byrne said on his official website. "We knew that music should be playing as people enter the club and after the show is over...and here it is! Matt Stine and Justin Levine created over 40 minutes of energetic and exciting dance mixes related to the show. You'll hear elements from the all-star recording from a few years ago—and some songs written for the show but never used. There are mash-ups of show music, too. It's all seamless, non-stop fun."

2010 - David Byrne & Fatboy Slim - Here Lies Love (Flac)

Here Lies Love is a double-disc song cycle – improbably poignant, decidedly surreal, surprisingly thought provoking – about the rise and fall of the Philippines' notorious Imelda Marcos. It was conceived by David Byrne; composed by Byrne and DJ/recording artist Fatboy Slim, AKA Norman Cook; and performed by a dream cast drawn from the worlds of indie rock, alt country, R&B and pop. Byrne's taste in collaborators is as imaginative as it is impeccable, including Cyndi Lauper (who recounts, to lighthearted disco beats, Imelda's courtship with Ferdinand Marcos), Steve Earle (as the power-hungry Ferdinand), Dap-Kings vocalist Sharon Jones (recalling Imelda's introduction into New York society) and Natalie Merchant (as spurned Imelda confidante Estrella, anticipating the onset of martial law). Along with vocals turns from such stars as Tori Amos and the B-52's Kate Pierson, Byrne works with rising indie rockers St. Vincent and My Brightest Diamond; New York chanteuses Nellie McKay and Martha Wainwright; and dance-music divas Róisín Murphy and Santigold. Byrne himself appears as the voice of imperialistic America on ‘American Troglodyte’, a send-up that wouldn't have seemed out of places in Talking Heads' True Stories.
