I’d love to have two copies of this. First, I’d love one "clean" copy for my students, for in terms of recorded poetry readings, it’s well done; it really captures the feeling of the poems (Yes, the music helps, but the reading style by itself makes it work). You have to think Hardy would have liked the reading. Alas, I’m not brave enough to endure the backlash of parents, so an edited copy would have to do....
The other copy is this version, the full version: that persona Fripp assumes is hilarious. Then again, knowing what little I know of Hardy, he might have enjoyed the full version, too.
Question: Did Robert Fripp chose the poems, or were the poems chosen for him? Just curious....

I’ll second Mr Flaherty’s comments on the sound. The most noticeable distortion is on the most violent sections of the music towards the end and to me it actually adds Read more

In a recent piece for DGM, I mentioned how wonderful this particular evening of soundscapes was. I am, of course, delighted to see this same performance become available.
In honesty, I actually expected, after 12 years, to be Read more

I remember this show well. Perhaps I remember this as my favorite of Mr. Fripp’s Boston soundscape visits. Though the jam packed Boston House of Blues show from a few years earlier is another standout show (for its intense audience Read more

This came up on the ipod on random play. Thought it was a Queens of the Stone Age bonus track. I kept expecting to hear Josh Homme start singing!

At first listen it kinda reminds me of Jade Warrior if anyone remembers them. Nice dreamlike quality with an atmospheric touch.

People have noted that the audio quality of this recording is not perfect. I feel fortunate that I am more of a musicophile than an audiophile. I have minor hearing problems: people are always re-adjusting my equalizer as Read more

Wow. Thu., Dec 17, 2009
Posted by: BillJames
Wow. This may just be the perfect soundscapes - for me at least. The mood is definitely darker, but more importantly deeper, too. It unsettles (Queer Space), disturbs (Threnody and Foreboding), and soothes (Acceptance and Resolution) in a way that none Read more
