Will this be a instrumental one Rob?

Great stuff Rob, thanks for posting!

It's a minor detail and I'm sure it doesn't matter but I wonder why it's on Edsel/Demon and not Metamatic ...

Great titles as always.

And here's the front cover...



Rob

Lovely stuff

Been looking forward to this one for a while.
Thanks for posting the news Rob

Thanks for posting this great news, Rob!

Looking forward to this CD 'cause of Theo Travis' saxophone. I like listening to this instrument and I'm curios of how it work together with John's synths.

I haven't got a clue who Theo Travis is, but that's a lovely cover!

I'm not too keen on the saxophone as a musical instrument but no doubt the result will be of interest.

Big Theo Travis interview here

According to WIkipedia, he plays flute too. Could be interesting.

Great news! Love the artwork too, very TCM

I have a piece by him & Robert Fripp. Will be interesting to see what this new work will be like.

After several non-Foxx sleeves, it's nice to see that distinctive style back on the front of an album

If we judge by both of the most of the titles, John seems to be the senior partner here.

That question is answered here.

I've just added a new forum in the Links and Connections category

"Love Theme"

I've just been listening to Torn Sunset, via myspace.

Oh dear.
You know the music they play in the weird little shops in Whitby, like "Hildoceras", panpipe "mood" music stuff.. (Gulp!)
With incense candles burning in the back of the shop.

Aaaargh! run away!

Absolutely love the artwork for this. Quality. But then, you never expect anything less from John.

Always have loved sunsets anyway

I have to admit, when I heard the previews, I thought it sounded like the kind of music you hear in the Garden Centre on those new age music player things!

Maybe he's been sleeping in the garden a few too many times!
