Farewell, Cassini

Final 22 orbits go inside the rings of Saturn, closer and closer until the probe dives into Saturn's atmosphere. If Cassini survives, dodging all the stray objects it could strike along the way, it will be a spectacular finish to one of the most successful space missions ever.

Oooh.............. that's not the Brian they have in mind...... but that's a very legit guess...

 

When is someone going to put a good cover of this guitar solo on youtube, can't they get their 6 year old to try it?

Robert Fripp.

there are very few that have the artistic ability to cover eno or fripp, they are in a completely different stratosphere

 

 

 

Fripp or Rudolph, with some magic in the mixing....

 

But it seems everything is covered at someone's house on youtube, can't find this.

A few have duplicated Jaco's bass solo on Port of Entry. [Night quite the same as seeing him live extend it while jumping and running around...]

 

Anyone??? It's a guitar solo....

Very clever move, they rotated the transmitting dish antenna forward to act as a shield when they pass through the particle field.

Literally they are in thier own orbit. That said both and in particular RF rely on heavy electronic manuipulation of their guitar sounds

(Fripptronics) a good thing too see is the Bowie Special aired on now one of the MTV channels they bought out someone and put it in rotation. Good laugh when Bowie calls Fripp and invites him too Berlin (i think) too see "What you can add too the album).

 

Fripp responds with talking about a new toy he just purchased and Bowie says bring it. Their heavy useof Effects and back then tape manipulation aside both of them are unique players.

For Fripp I still think "In the court of the crimson King" is brilliant. For Eno he caught our attention bigtime with "Ambient 1 music for airports"
