Fripp & Eno
My thanks to Will Cruttenden for sending in this review of F&E from issue 296 of The Wire. When No Pussyfooting was released in 1973 it wasn't the first record to bring ambient/minimalist music to rock audiences - coming a couple of years after Popol Vuh and Tangerine Dream started experimenting with soundscapes - but itcauseda stir among the english speaking music world, not least because it marked a radical departure for two of art rock's biggest stars: Robert Fripp and Brian Eno.
The Sunday Times has chosen Fripp & Eno's seminal No Pussyfooting as their must-have reissue of the week. You can read the review tucked away online here.
As you can see from his latest updated diary, Robert is busy remastering a couple of Fripp and Eno classics, No Pussyfooting and Evening Star. In the diary Robert says “Now, onto backwards versions, as originally featured on John Peel.
There's a splendidly dopey review of Fripp & Eno Live In Paris over at Audiophile Audition.
