Written by mflaherty

The performance at Wolverhampton is, I believe, among the best titles from Robert Fripp’s December Suite.  In particular, this version of "Time Stands Still" is very moving, perhaps the best version available of this piece.  The rest of the concert continues a high standard, making this selection a particularly good choice for the soundscape collector.

However, with this many versions of the same work being available, recommendations of a single night from this tour become almost impossible.  While Wolverhampton contains my favorite "Time Stands Still", Ely’s "Queer Jazz" and the Shepherds Bush version of "At the End of Time" stand out.  My feeling is that for recent soundscapes the longer All Saints show from January 2006 is a good starting place.  If that show leaves you wanting more, this is as good of a place to start as any.

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

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

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
