A Whole Lotta Hartford Goin' On June 19, 1996
Written by Mike Stack
Last night was the G3 show in Hartford,
so myself and two of my friends headed over to check out RF, basically. Showed
up around 6pm or so, were checking
out the merchandise when we heard RF starting up. Headed in, checked out the
show. He played from 6-7:20 or so, sat off to my left (we were pretty much dead
centre). Lots of interesting stuff, seemed to be a lot more chordal strumming than
on the albums he's put out. At one point towards the end of RF's set, some
idiot started screaming and yelling and banging the chair in front of him.
Fripp got louder. Idiot got louder. Fripp got louder. Fripp also looked
somewhat annoyed at this point.
A few interesting notes about RF's performance
-most the crowd didn't give a damn, including some guy dressed all snazzily
in his business suit, who didn't shut up the whole night.
-RF occasionally got up, took off his guitar, and walked further to my left
to talk to someone else. Don't know who.
-RF wore a white shirt untucked and black pants, while switching to a black
shirt during the encore (more later...).
-No one smoked anything illegal during Fripp's set, something that couldn't
be said for the rest.

Personally, I do not find this music to be darker. Deeper is a better description. I’ve been a fan since the Frippertronic days and for me this is amoung the best I’ve heard so Read more

This is one of the most compelling listens of all the soundscapes. Sid was not exagerating one bit. Robert really puts forward some new material on themes that have been established for almost a Read more

A slight and inevitable return, just as a partial vision, to some fifteen years ago to a minor but well known threnody, just when the destiny of the old earth was apparent to a very Read more

These soundscapes are something different. While many themes from the current series (December Suites, Doing Dixie, and Cathedral Tours) are apparent in them, there is a quality to these that makes them a departure from Read more

Even after one listen through, this music is truly inspirational and evocative. Beautifully recorded and presented. Thank you to artist, audience and technical folk alike - everyone that conspired to bring this forth.

This music has so much space, taking the listener on a journey. I find it very refreshing to listen to Mr Fripp’s pieces of music.
This soundscape is one in which the listener can really get a sense of Read more

Delightful. Buy this and the soundcheck. Of all the soundscape performances I have heard, this is my favorite. Everything really comes together. Of course, it is a little unsettling knowing that the performance was edited down a wee bit, but Read more
