 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.

I give this 5 stars for it’s novelty value within RF’s body of work, because it has a delightfully "ordinary" sound--the kind of thing you’ve played yourself, jamming with friends. Of course,a little goes a long way and I wouldn’t Read more

there’s beauty throughout this recording. it is (despite the geographic placement of its emerging) very pacific sounding. where the frippertronics can be coloured with smears of yellow and shards of red (crimson even), shades of blue abound in this Read more

Fine work by both performer and audio engineer. Very much appreciate the original loops which have a power apart from being vehicles for soloing.

Great sound quality and performance, with some interesting components to every loop. If you have any interest in vintage Fripptronics this is a good place to start (or continue).

Discipline is one of my all time favorites, and I truly enjoyed getting a glimpse of its infancy. Thank you! Would I be rude if I asked, "More, please?" If not, "More, please?" ±Dan
