{"product_id":"bryars-jesus-blood-never-failed-me-yet","title":"Bryars: Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet","description":"Amazon.com\n\nThis late minimalist, 74-minute piece for orchestra and tape has had, and continues to have, a near-legendary effect on its audience. It's the rare work created specifically to tug gently at one's heartstrings that actually does, and not subtly, either. It starts with a found recording of a homeless man singing a halting, simple melody looped over and over. Then Bryars builds and buttresses this with a full orchestra brought in incrementally, from the first carefully placed short pendulum string sweep to, 10 minutes from the end, the gravelly-voiced singer Tom Waits joins in. It's an obvious but effective work--appealing to all the basics of our emotional nervous system, but still tragically beautiful. --Robin Edgerton\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0000040UT\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B0000040UT.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Gavin Bryars|Tom Waits\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
