It was actually kind of a natural, when you think about it. Already longstanding indie-rock heroes, the Lips soared to new heights of song craft, studio wizardry and success with 1999’s "The Soft Bulletin," which bathed Wayne Coyne’s most honest, heartfelt songs yet in seas of synthesized strings. And so, the band took that orchestrated sound to its logical conclusion with this May 26, 2016 Red Rocks concert, playing the album in its entirety with the Colorado Symphony and conductor André De Ridder. A 69-piece orchestra and 56-piece chorus lift these beautiful songs into a lush new sonic stratosphere: "Race for the Prize," "A Spoonful Weighs a Ton," "The Spark That Bled," "The Spiderbite Song," "Waitin’ for a Superman" and more. This magnificent live album arrives now in celebration of the 20th anniversary of "The Soft Bulletin," the Flaming Lips’ enduring masterpiece. CD or double vinyl! Warner Bros.
