Frippertronics

Arny's Shack
There are two real gems on offer here. With backing loops recorded sometime during his Frippertronics tour of 1979, Fripp went back into the studio in the 80s to lay down some truly inspired soloing.

Sadly thanks to the passage of time between then and now, very little is known about these tracks. The overdubs were performed at Fripp’s regular stop-off in Poole, Arnie’s Shack. However, we don’t know exactly when - the best guess being sometime between 1980 and 1983. Perhaps the second track is the one donated to the British Deaf Association’s fund-raising album, Sometimes A Great Notion released in 1984?

What we do know however is that these solos bear that unmistakable passion and yearning guaranteed to send a shiver down the spine of the universe.

Cheap at twice the price

Who remembers Barbertronics?
Absolutely gorgeous music  - Yes, it does take one back to the "coffee house ’n’ record store years"! How I recall that teatime appearance at the Virgin MeagreStore (near Tottenham Court Road tube - ’Don’t look for it now...’) in March of ’81... Robert had a haircut while conducting a Q&A... attempted a Frippertronic or two, suffered from a non-responsive Revox, played an impromptu solo over "one he’d made earlier" instead (from Chicago?)... And it sounded remarkabl...

Bloody lovely
My favourite Fripp sound ever, just lovely, I so wish we could have an albums worth of this stuff, that tone, and such music, straight to the soul stuff, up there with his solo on Hammond Song, which is the sound of heaven itself.
