Written by mflaherty

The performance at Wolverhampton is, I believe, among the best titles from Robert Fripp’s December Suite.  In particular, this version of "Time Stands Still" is very moving, perhaps the best version available of this piece.  The rest of the concert continues a high standard, making this selection a particularly good choice for the soundscape collector.

However, with this many versions of the same work being available, recommendations of a single night from this tour become almost impossible.  While Wolverhampton contains my favorite "Time Stands Still", Ely’s "Queer Jazz" and the Shepherds Bush version of "At the End of Time" stand out.  My feeling is that for recent soundscapes the longer All Saints show from January 2006 is a good starting place.  If that show leaves you wanting more, this is as good of a place to start as any.
