[looper's] RE: fripp/eno

[goddard.duncan@mtvne.com]

>>Hey all, a local bar in New Orleans is having an all Brian Eno night and I would like to do a set of Fripp/Eno. What song would you all do? I'm thinking of "Index Of Metals" although "Evening Star" is pretty recognizable.

Also...what did Fripp look like back then?<<

 

afro, frown. had started sitting down for gigs back in the early crimson days. dark coloured les paul, maybe a custom, can't remember. he was beginning to smarten himself up a bit but still looked like a student. apologies to any students reading this.

 

how about one of eno's wonderful songs, instead of a loopathon? you should take a crack at "driving me backwards" or "king's lead hat" (his talking heads tribute); I especially like the synth solo in the latter.

 

or you could get a nice indexy loop going and then intone some choice paragraphs from his me-me-me-tome, "with swollen appendices"; for a real eno in-joke, you could arrange for someone to double-track this with you, like he did with all his singing.

 

whatever, you must obtain revoxes, even if they're just for show.

 

duncan/r.m.i./enough slack time today to listen to the whole eno-oeuvre, would that it were here at work with me......
