Written by MookieKeebler

I concur with wordsmith that "Music is our Friend" and "Pastorale: Mendoza" work well concurrently.  If you start them at the same time, "Music is our Friend" ends just a few moments before the beginning of the lovely solo near the end of "Pastorale: Mendoza".  If I my refine the suggestion slightly, thus far I find it more pleasing if I increase the volume of "Pastorale: Mendoza" by something between 3db and 5db, and decrease the volume of "Music is our Friend" by as much as 4db to 6db.  This does cause the voice, at some moments, to become somewhat submerged in the soundscape, but in a way that I find pleasing, and which enhances the merging of the two into one.  I will play with it some more, but suspect I will ultimately be pleased by a non-fixed volume ratio that varies over time, as may seem appropriate.  I certainly hope Mr. Fripp is not offended by our indulgence in such meddling with his work for our own enjoyment.

Bleeping Premiere   Fri., Oct 19, 2012
Posted by: microbunny
This wonderful recording is a significant one. Music for Journalists II is the earliest known appearance of the infamous "bleeping" element of Frippertronics. Perhaps this is where he picked up the on/off switch that he used subsequently or he Read more

Unlikely Munich 22 May 1979   Thu., Oct 18, 2012
Posted by: ckazzer
An excellent recording, however, this is unlikely the tape from Munich 22 May 1979 because "Unknown I" sounds like "1983" off "God Save the Queen", "Unknown II" sounds like the track "God Save the Queen" Read more

A Nice Find   Sat., Oct 13, 2012
Posted by: intergalactic
This recording is of a powerful and passionate instrumental piece. The scales and rhythmic patterns are premonitions of future Crimson music. It sounds like it was re corded live in the studio. Read more

Starless and Bible Fracture   Fri., Oct 12, 2012

If you’re going through the reviews of this one, you’ll no doubt notice that this one has been around for awhile. Indeed, I bought it about five years ago Read more

Mel Collins is a beast   Thu., Oct 11, 2012
Posted by: jeffoaster
The performance on this one is certainly a five star, and except for the audience portions of the concert (i.e. the first 2:30 or so of Get Thy Bearings are almost unlistenable before a jarring return to the SB portion), Read more
