"Nine David Byrne tracks including several songs from his 2008 collaboration with Brian Eno, 'Everything That Happens Will Happen Today' are featured in the film and on the soundtrack to Oliver Stone's much anticipated sequel to the 1987 Academy Award winning Wall Street. Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps starring Michael Douglas and Shia LaBeouf hits theaters September 24th." (Amazon.com)
I was asked by David's management to put together the CD package. It had been awhile since I worked on a project associated with David. Always an honor.
I still can’t believe I actually worked with David Bowie, Brian Eno and Philip Glass together on one project. The package design for Philip’s Heroes Symphony, based on the music from the Bowie and Eno album Heroes, began as rough sketches on a napkin. (Yes, it is true that some really good ideas begin as rough sketches on napkins.) Philip and I were friends and had worked together previously on other projects so I was comfortable with him. I didn’t sleep much the night before the photo session with David Bowie. I also was pretty anxious the afternoon I met Brian Eno at his session. (Yes, I asked both of them for their autographs, and got them).
