 Performance Question June 14, 2011
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.

Stunning!!!! Mon., May 24, 2010

Excellent!!! It’s a kind of excitiment that refers back to the Fripp & Eno days but which you will not find in in the soundscapes of Fripp’s later days. I can see the development of soundcapes but I do prefer Read more

This is very interesting musically on its own, and likewise interesting historically in the context of Fripp solo work/performances. The guitar sound is not like Frippertronics or pre 75 Crimson. Sometimes it is like it is in League of Read more

Not so ill-fated... Sat., May 8, 2010
Posted by: maxbuzz
Some of the ideas one can hear there seem to be further developed in collaboration with Trey Gunn. We can hear them on earlier-published-there Proto Punk track (rf19921211-0101). It is good that such tunes are not Read more

And if I’m not mistaken, the opening ascending line was also played by Tony/Trey at the beginning of Seizure on the Roar of P4...

A Lovely Piece Sun., Mar 28, 2010
Posted by: dshoemaker
This is a lovely and delicate piece. It reminds me a bit of the tone poems on Eno’s Another Green World. As a previous reviewer noted, this piece varies from the Frippertronics/Soundscapes approaches we may have heard more Read more

As others have said, this really doesn’t sound like either Frippertronics or Soundscapes. Both of them usually involve shifting harmonies and rhythms due to the looping Read more
