Double vinyl LP pressing. Live release. On May 26, 2016, The Flaming Lips performed their classic album The Soft Bulletin in it's entirety with the Colorado Symphony at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado. The Flaming Lips (Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins, Derek Brown, Jake Ingalls, Matt Kirksey and Nicholas Ley) were accompanied by a 69-piece orchestra and 56-strong Chorus. The performance was conducted by the internationally celebrated conductor Andre de Ridder. The Flaming Lips performed the 12-track album in it's original sequence with new arrangements for each song that use the orchestra and chorus to great effect. This entire concert was produced by The Flaming Lips, Scott Booker and their long-time collaborator Dave Fridmann. This resulting live album is being released to celebrate the 20th anniversary of The Soft Bulletin, originally released in 1999. The album was the band's breakthrough moment and featured the hit singles "Race For The Prize" and "Waitin' for a Superman".

On Soft Bulletin [Live at Red Rocks], the Flaming Lips bring together the open-air immediacy of an outdoor rock concert and the majesty of an orchestra -- two things rarely heard together on the average live album. Capturing the band's performance of their landmark 1999 album at the famed Morrison, Colorado amphitheater in 2016, the album never sounds too mannered or too raw. On songs such as "A Spoonful Weighs a Ton," heavy bass and guitar, pedal steel, strings and Wayne Coyne's fragile vocals all hold their own and blend together organically; considering that this is the first time the Flaming Lips recorded with a full orchestra, it's an even more impressive feat. The band's collaboration with the Colorado Symphony, a 57-person chorus, and conductor Andre de Ridder often reaches dazzling heights, particularly on the dynamic psych-rock of "Gash" and "The Spiderbite Song," which translates every bit of wonder in the studio version to the Red Rocks stage. The crowd's rapturous reception of Soft Bulletin [Live at Red Rocks] acts like another instrument in the album's mix, with the swells of applause for songs ranging from the iconic "Waitin' for a Superman" and "Race for the Prize" to the instrumental "The Observer" providing euphoric crescendos between each performance. An engaging and special live album that remains true to the original's maximalist, life-affirming glory, Soft Bulletin [Live at Red Rocks] is another fine example of the care and creativity the Flaming Lips put into all of their music. ~ Heather Phares, AllMusic
