[@rosyrose2112]

how i wish this was on spotify

[@veitstauffer9044]

Absolutely masterpiece! 🌹💥😎"For Me Sounds Like Another Green World" (Eno) for the 80's!

[@merlhemlok007]

First song reminds me of Silver Apples. I forgot how great this album is, thanks for the reminder

[@MegaCirse]

It’s as if one were entering one of these palaces in center of Europe, with the pastry architecture “style whipped chocolate tart” In every room where one enters, the individuals are dressed in black and white from head to foot. They have this strange absence in the eyes while staring at you. The ceilings are painted, the furnishings are indescribably luxurious and the marble tables reflect the evanescent serenity of the place! Everything is rigid, until the time that flows behind the paneling, as on the alert The absurd coupled with magic for the imminent departure to a universe some of which have not yet returned and many dream to depths of their subconscious 🕊

[@robertmora8241]

plus the ideas I agree with the surrounding {the cholocate tart especially}, but can't help having new and new ideas when listeing to this of Mr Frith In your concept, I might have already returned [shame on me]

[@pierrepicot3706]

I lovely all many noises (percussifs or not and manners to mocking the "cold wave")

[@incumbentvinyl9291]

'Some Clouds Don't' is an amazingly catchy tune!

[@takesallkindscomedy]

Favorite album ever recorded

[@juliocortes9922]

Maravilloso! Alguna buen alma lo puso en la radio en Santiago de Chile una tarde de domingo hacia 1987. Es bueno para un/a adolescente escuchar esto en el momento correcto.

[@alessandromugnai3181]

Veramente adorabile

[@pierrepicot3706]

In 83 Fred Frith was an accomplishment musician & composer : it's a normal think if he will play in Naked City (John Zorn projet) in 88 1 Filmworks 85 - 91

[@hayleyserena5726]

Incredible 🥰

[@papakilatube]

[@P16.D4]

[@rlmint]

[@PH-tw4nx]

most underrated album of all time

[@danny-o2501]

another one !

[@freddodanzaruiz430]

es un album muy entretenido que invita a jugar a crear y mas aun a soñar

[@Bix12]

fred took a lot of flack for this record.....back then, now those same critics love it.

[@HoxVox]

I don't give a shit of music magazines, this way I found a lot of great bands without being disturbed by sellouts and mediocres wannabe musicians that become music journalists. Music magazine are useless, only idiots read them. Find the music by yourself, without people paid to lie addressing you in the wrong way.

[@ganazby]

@@HoxVox The problem with music journalists (most of them, anyway) is that they have no practical knowledge of the topic they are purportedly writing about, which is why you’ll read lots of colourful articles about everything but the actual music itself.

[@Freddy-Da-Freeloadah]

Great Album: Frith's bass playing was unique at the time. Like a cross between Paul Macartny and Laswell... IMHO

[@massimomarchesin8708]

Pop? Magari i dischi Pop fossero di questo livello!!! Cosa c'è da meravigliarsi ? Fred Frith è uno dei pochi veri geni musicali accanto a Frank zappa Peter Hammill Peter Gabriel il nostro Battiato David Bowie Mike Oldfield ah dimenticavo anche il suo compagno di viaggio con gli Henry Cow Tim Hodgkinson anche lui una mente fuori dal comune !!!! Ed altri ancora

[@pierrepicot3706]

OK but if you're musician there is more (i'm all right for Zappa but he was play with Pierre Boulez not other names : why ?)

[@davidenfiladissa9900]

tothom vol cardar amb en Frith

[@7karlheinz]

I always viewed this as equivlant to Eno's pop LPs.

[@pierrepicot3706]

Please just listen !

[@krisscanlon4051]

I agree and I think you are listening hence the astute commentary...feel free to say as you need... some folks have no silver lining

[@pierrepicot3706]

The machine-gun play with electronic drums (like Bobby Previte made after) ; all is hère - THE IDEAS

[@rodrosco5442]

Cheap at Half the Price....is the right price for a Fred Frith solo album!!

[@HoxVox]

It should cost 100 times more than a Morontallica album.

[@incumbentvinyl9291]

@@HoxVox You're embarrassing yourself, child.

[@sunrara7133]

Che Sun Ra lo illumini!!!

[@bernab]

I know Chris Cutler didn't like this album at first. I think Fred Frith was very brave to compose this one!!!

[@elisavieira737]

❤️

[@pierrepicot3706]

Fred return to the begining of Pink Floyd (at : The piper gates of dawn) he work Steve Reich or Bernard Parmegiani , he know Something : 2 musics exist - Good or Bad (Duke Ellington)

[@coadmiller5010]

Sounds to me like Tim H.s Farfisa and alto sax... Anyone know?...

[@massimomarchesin8708]

Ritornando al titolo Heart Bares notare che la parola Bares facendo l'anagramma diventa Bears

[@ferruccio4531]

thank you for the upload, I love this work. кстати, ты русский?

[@incumbentvinyl9291]

Njet.

[@massimomarchesin8708]

Ho notato che in questo album c'è un titolo Heart Bares che a pronunciarlo suona come il nome del gruppo che venne dopo l'esperienza come Henry Cow ovvero gli Art Bears

WELCOME TO THE INSECTS

[@burtgouvey4496]

Peut-on détester quelqu'un qui aime cet album ?

[@Dopethroner]

I DON’T WANT YR MONEY / GET OUT OF HERE !

[@sslocumb]

I paid over $40.00 for a Japanese vinyl pressing of "Cheap at Half the Price", so...

[@sslocumb]

Looked for thjs for 30 years after listening to a 90 minute tape I recorded off a college radio station until the tape broke which played the whole thing.

[@massimomarchesin8708]

Certo poi c'è anche Robert Fripp Eno Robert Wyatt Arthur Brown David Gilmour Steve Hackett etc Certo ci sono musicisti sopra alla media e sono sicuramente anche di più di un centinaio però sono sempre pochi rispetto alla maggioranza di quelli di buon livello medio livello e scarso livello !!!!
