The Harmonia record with Eno isn't half bad, either. No idea if it's in print, though.
What I want to know is when will Cluster '71 be back in print. . .

I still have a copy of Cluster 71 (wonder how much it goes for on Ebay?)
the one I'm waiting for is Sowiesoso. GOD I miss that fucking record. some asshole or other borrowed it and never gave it back. (so glad I dont smoke weed anymore).
all 3 Harmonia records were excellent.
had the pleasure and luck to catch Mobius and Michael Rother live at the Cooler in NYC 5 years ago................. space is, most definitely, the place.
just bought the brand new Fripp/Eno collaboration. a proper follow up more than 30 years later. more subtle and nuanced than the old material.
also just ordered Apollo, Music for Films, etc.

Think the Eno/Cluster stuff was mentioned in The Times some months ago.
The reviewer saying that the newly remastered CDs sounds almost as good
as the original vinyl. Apparantly the first CD release of these (in the 80s?) were
all mastered in a horrible way (happened a lot) and these newer ones are better
(but the vinyl still better if I remember the review correctly - nevermind I've got these
on good ol' cassette
).

Fripp/Eno - I wasn't waiting for the son off "No Pussyfooting"/"Evening Star"; they are far from as good as the Eno/Cluster and Eno/Moebius/Roedeliues releases. I see that the first two Fripp/Eno albums get an average of almost 5 stars on Amazon; whereas "Music for Films" (which I think is great) merely has 3. Something is not right up in Amazon land.

I do like Fripp's "Exposure" album though. He has a superb version of "Here Comes The Flood" on it (Gabriel on vocals, and "our man" Phil Collins on drums? (Phil also plays on a lot of the Eno records from the 70s). I think from the same sessions as "Peter Gabriel", an album that was overproduced by Bob Ezrin.

The two main Harmonia albums are simply incredible, but I've got the Eno/Harmonia one and I'm not too keen to be honest. Mostly vocal tracks with rather half-hearted synthetic backing. I've given it several chances, but it's never impressed me much.

I second that emotion.

third here. I forgot that this was the reason I don't own a copy of it. I for one think Eno is someone who should never go anywhere near a mic. atleast after Another Green World.
another person who makes lovely music but should not sing: David Silvian.
