Lazarus Original Cast Recording Explicit Lyrics

Description

Two CD edition. Lazarus, the musical presented by the New York Theater
Workshop in December 2015 and January 2016, was written by David Bowie and
Enda Walsh. The show opened to phenomenal critical acclaim. The New York Times
raved “Ice-cold bolts of ecstasy shoot like novas through the glamorous muddle
and murk of Lazarus, the great-sounding, great-looking and mind-numbing new
musical, ” while Rolling Stone hailed it as a “Surrealistic Tour de Force…
milk-swimming, lingerie-sniffing, gin-chugging theater at it’s finest.”
Lazarus is based on the classic sci-fi novel The Man Who Fell to Earth by
Walter Tevis. The musical includes both re-worked material from Bowie’s iconic
catalogue alongside brand new music. This collection includes the full cast
and band of the original New York production with their versions of the David
Bowie songs from the show as the Lazarus Cast Album. The album was produced by
the show’s musical director Henry Hey, who had previously worked with Bowie on
“The Next Day” and features vocals from actors Michael C. Hall, Sophia Anne
Caruso, Cristin Milioti, Michael Esper and other cast members backed by the
seven-piece house band Hey assembled for the New York run. The album was
recorded January 11, 2016. Upon arriving at the studio, the musicians and cast
were shocked and saddened to learn that Bowie had passed away the evening
before. Their emotional performances that day are captured on this recording.
