Paradise First Performance Boston, MA, USA |
      I remember this show April 6, 2012
Written by Undude
For the few people who may have attended this amazing show, I am sure this will bring back some very unique and happy memories. For the many people who were not able to see this entirely unique performance / tour, this is a wonderful way to experience it: musically and lecturally. I was lucky enough to be at this event, seated in the first row, and have a cassette recording of the show given to me shortly thereafter by someone who was attending Boston University at that time. The lecture portion of the event is a most unique aspect of this evening, in that recordings of Frippertronics are available. Those with longer memories may remember that a transcription of this exact lecture was once posted to Elephant Talk. Reading a lecture transcript, however, isn’t as impactful as hearing the presentation. Highly recommended!

Indeed, Alex did a tremendous work in putting, cutting and glueing all the recordings together to one sequence. For sure, this recording and the whole tour will not be the top seller @ Read more

Great sound Mon., May 6, 2013
Posted by: davidfsnyder
I love the Frippertronics of course, but the lecture and Q&A were excellent. A clear, cogent, honest explanation of his development as a guitarist, for one thing. The demo of the use of the fuzz box to overcome the "feebleness" Read more

As I recall, a rainy night in Tempe, maybe why my tickets (see photos for this data) are blurred. We got lost trying to find this Hall on campus Read more

Monstrous Sun., Oct 28, 2012

Unknown II is monstrous! Around the 13 minute mark it sounds like a monster screaming for food! (at least that’s the kind of image it invokes for me). Unknown III and IV are also both very Read more

Pretty sure the german word "Schallplatten" translates into "Record Store" in English. I think the proper name of this venue should be "Govi Schallplatten" or "Govi Record Store". Fantastic job with the bootleg synchronization and wonderful to Read more

Long Phrases Sat., Oct 20, 2012
Posted by: microbunny
Absolutely stunning pieces here! Especially notable are some unusually long phrases entered directly into the loops lasting almost the full repeat duration which make for some truly notable segments. Music for Palaces II contains a Read more

Bleeping Premiere Fri., Oct 19, 2012
Posted by: microbunny
This wonderful recording is a significant one. Music for Journalists II is the earliest known appearance of the infamous "bleeping" element of Frippertronics. Perhaps this is where he picked up the on/off switch that he used subsequently or he Read more

Unlikely Munich 22 May 1979 Thu., Oct 18, 2012
Posted by: ckazzer
An excellent recording, however, this is unlikely the tape from Munich 22 May 1979 because
"Unknown I" sounds like "1983" off "God Save the Queen", "Unknown II" sounds like the track "God Save the Queen" Read more
