Travis Sullivan's Bjorkestra

As Björk's most recent albums have wandered further and further into bland self-indulgence, along comes Travis Sullivan's Bjorkestra to remind us of the glories of her earlier music. Live Bjorkestra MP3s have been floating around for a while now, but it's a treat to hear a full album's worth of proper recordings of these experimental big band versions of catalog Björk tunes. As with Björk's music itself, the more recent tunes are less successful, but the album hangs together surprisingly well, surpassing the notion that this is just a novelty project. From the album Enjoy.
