Metamatic Forums John Foxx Collaborations Nighthawks

I've heard this one a couple of times but don't feel that summer is the right season for it somehow - I'm going to try to save becoming too familiar with it until, say, late night shopping begins. I agree that it's definitely a little unsettling in places - I suppose city streets at night have that effect.

i just wanted to say that I think the Nighthawks album is excellent - somewhat more sparse and refined that the other foxx/budd ones, which got a bit 'gloopy' at times (from everything just merging into one big reverb shimmer).

There's one track in particular, dunno the name but it's basically just a really-slowly-played piano melody, it's beautiful.... am I getting confused or was it previously used as incidental music on the 'Quiet Man' audiobook CD?

(PS - it's called "The Invisible Man"...)

An amazing album. Special as Cathedral Oceans. Deservedly released as part of a three disc set. Two great works of art.
