This is a very good concert and I am amazed by the atmosphere it provides. I think it has the same kind of positive spirit, "Soundcapes, live in the USA" tries to create. It is very atmospheric and very complex at the same time and even though I like Fripp & Eno, especially the live concerts as well as some Frippertronics live performances (which were even more interesting and rewarding as e.g. The Power Falls can show) a lot, these soundcapes show soundscapes/frippertonics/eno loops on a very high and subtle level, comparable to the latest Fripp & Eno album. If you missed some soloing on the 90s soundscapes, you will find it here, although it does not have the aggressive attitude of "The Heavenly Music Corporation." If you like the piano-like guitar Fripp played with Project II or Fripp, Gunn & Rieflin, you will find "Queer Jazz: Minor" interesting. It would have been perfect to see that concert live in the Sutton Parish Church Ely. It might be worthwhile to consider a film shoot of one of any future concerts in such a venue and releasing it on DVD. Certainly, it’s not the same as being there but could come close.

This, the last performance of Robert’s "December Suite", is, for me, the most moving of the four released so far. While there does seem to be some search occuring here, some of the mournful longing found on the newer recordings Read more

Having attended both the Wolverhampton and Ely soundscapes I find it difficult to review either of then in the conventional sense. Both were wonderful experiences but the Wulfrun Hall, where the guy in the T-shirt with a print Read more
