     SOUND  VISION WORD

 Well this one sure took me by surprise. Quite unlike anything the LoG ended up sounding like. This is raw, brutal and beautiful. The guitar sound is Fripp in excelsis. He navigates us through 13 thrilling minutes of totally cliche free, on the edge guitar playing. The groove is more akin to something like Can, with Mr Toobad and Ms Lee keeping everything chugging away beautifully.

Wow that guitar must have shaken the walls of that hunting lodge. The ropey sound quality only adds to the intensity. I’m not kidding when I say this is already one of my favourite all time Fripp performances, it’s totally outside the box.

 I only discovered it yesterday, but have listened to little else today !

The sound quality almost matches that of the "God Save The King" CD. This is a must download if you want to hear clean versions of the songs that did not make it onto the Read more

Great Sound   Mon., Mar 1, 2010

Another excellent LOG download, with great sound. It’s always an enjoyable listen to these folks groove, hear Robert in a purely instrumental setting, and the organ take its rightful place in the sonic Read more

I was at this show too (we were either the first or second on  line to get in - waited for hours).  Just want to make a correction to the previous post: I believe the opening act was Read more

I now feel happy that my long term fantasy, in which the double trio covered Jungle Boogie, had some basis in reality. Cheers, Robert Read more

A New Low (and I don't mean David Bowie in Berlin)   Mon., Feb 22, 2010

These are of novelty interest as the cheesiest items ever posted at DGM Live.  Pedestrian ideas, played in a pedestrian fashion, seemingly recorded using tin cans and string.  It seems entirely possible that these were performed by one of the Read more

I Talk to The Bootleg   Sat., Feb 20, 2010

Dear asdfadam I’m not sure why, but our copy of this show had a break in the tape where "I Talk to the Wind" should have been. We did have a version of the track, which I didn’t know Read more

I Talk To The Bootleg   Thu., Feb 18, 2010
Posted by: asdfadam
I am baffled as to why "I Talk To The Wind" would be left off. I have it on tape. It sounds fine. I didn’t understand why it was left off EPITAPH, much less this wonderful resource for old Read more

Well, it’s nice to have an extra 20 minutes of this wonderful gig.  But sorry, I have to agree with Scheiner.  In fact, I Talk To The The Wind is the ONLY extant live version of the track, and so it’s doubly disappointing Read more
