Written by MarkSullivan

This is a lovely recording--I’d have given it 4.5 stars if I could have--and it’s wonderful to hear the synced solos. You don’t get the full effect of a Frippertronics performance with just the loops. I attended a 1979 performance (at Second Chance in Ann Arbor, Michigan), and Fripp took himself out of the loop for brief solos during the creation of the first loop. The second set consisted of him soloing over a playback of the first loop. I assume that was his standard practice. So my question is, were there such solos played during the creation of these loops? If so, this is an incomplete record of the performance (but it’s great to hear the solos over the loops, so I’m not complaining). As I said, not a complaint, just a question.

These are really quite cool.  My personal favorite ’ambient-Fripp’ period is the Time Lag Accumulator era, and this delivers, with beautiful after-the-fact solos thrown in to suggest how some of the ’Let the Power Fall’ shows may have sounded in Read more

Celebration   Fri., Nov 30, 2007
Posted by: ckazzer
"CMaj Celebration" is indeed very very similar to the track that appeared on "Sometimes a Great Notion", only around 10 seconds longer and more raw sounding. Very moving to hear this again -- a celebration Read more

Analog Heaven!   Fri., Nov 30, 2007
Posted by: syncopatico
CMaj Celebration recalls a more aggressive & condensed "Evening Star" with similar variegated analog fullness and soaring guitar sonics! (Recommended highly for fans of that track/lp!!) and this is from the one dollar mp3-- prime solo analog Read more
