'Evening Star' is the second album by Fripp & Eno. Released in December 1975 it contains elements included on Eno’s seminal ambient album 'Discreet Music' also released in the same month. 'Discreet Music' was derived from loops that Eno created to accompany Robert Fripp’s guitar solos when the pair performed live, elements of which were also used on "Evening Star”. You can hear a short section of one of these loops the opening piece "Wind on Water.” The following title track features a Fripp solo that is regarded by fans as one of his most beautiful performances. "Evensong" and "Wind on Wind” formed the remainder of the album's first half. As if to balance the equation, the second side comprised a single piece "An Index of Metals". Running to almost 29 minutes it is almost the antithesis of the warm inviting music on the album's first half.

This song got my Kitty Kat out of hiding. She finally came inside during a blizzard. It took almost a year for her to let me pet her. But she wouldn't come inside. It took 4 hours just to get her out of the blizzard. Then she went into hiding for a day. It was amazing I put this on and she came out of hiding right away. Kitty Kat really does have good taste in music . She liked all of this album and every ambient album from Eno I've played. She's also fond of our friends from Budapest(that would be the Budapest Quartet) when they come over and play.
I especially enjoy Eno's (additional) contributions to this track: synthesizer and piano.
Try listening to this and not be reminded of some of your fondest memories
this album gave me hope and inspiration as a very troubled teen in 1975. Went to art school there after and survived.
This song takes me to another place entirely. This is what music is. Pure emotion.
It can make me feel happy when I'm sad, and sad when I'm happy
Masterpiece.
Really
We have similar tastes, you and I
one of the most iconic guitar solos ever
Anything Fripp does is amazing
YES!!!!!!!!
Not iconic. Beautiful.
The remark about the iconic status of this solo is very much on point. Every note is just perfect, as is the guitar tone. One of my very favorite non-KC performances from Fripp - along with St. Elmo's Fire (which veritably defines "ecstatic"). A solo for the ages, this. Couldn't be bettered.
Thank you, sir.
How, in the mid 70’s, did Robert get cello tones out of his amplifier?!
Genius is how.❤️
Super Nova of Music.
Fripp & Eno Evening Star...
Must be one of the distant stars burning out in all its glory.
In the 80s this song was used as the opening theme of "RAI Stereo Notte", broadcasted on the FM frequencies of Italian radio and television service.
And then the theme song of the Giornale della Mezzanotte began, namely "Jazz Carnival" by Azymuth.
Heavenly, this touches my heart, all is beautiful as I listen, with eyes closed I float on a cloud, ..thank you Mr Fripp,
The Ultimate Fripp & Eno track. Nothing is better!
Phenomenal and utterly beautiful!! I wound up with several copies of this killer lp to give to my friends! Mr. Fripp!!😉
I loved this piece when firstly listened it at my 19. And still love. Thank you!
This tune is part of my DNA. I always loved the gentle background, and the foreboding solo; they never contrast one another, and the effect is mesmerizing.
Ipnosi
Classic masterpiece of ambient/prog.
The music I listen to the most is from this era, including all the Frippertronics live recordings I could get from DGM. Magnificent material that makes my hair (what's left of it) stand agreeably on end.
ROBERT FRIPP is like
Jeff Beck/Jimi Hendrix/Allan Holdsworth/
John Mclaughlin.... for pulling notes out of a guitar that don't exist for anybody else....

This is my favourite album of all i have listened to
I call this abstract music. More than once coming home late at night from a night out I still listened to the whole album to get in a zen state of mind and then, go to sleep
This!!!
This theme makes me feel ALIVE, 😅💫✨
Nigel Benjamin from London brought me here...𝙉𝙊𝙏!🤣
Took me right back to being 16 and listening to this with massive Yamaha headphones, they cost more than the rest of the stereo equipment put together.
In a very recent post David Singleton and RF were discussing and attempting to define what music is.
Here we have a very pure and fine example of exactly what it is.
Something unique, spontaneous, highly emotive, unpretentious, technically creative and genuinely innovative in its time.
Along with ' No Pussyfooting ' it has been the root of so much by so many since the early 1970's.
A beautifully structured and composed piece that is utterly rewarding and has, and will continue to, outlive the test of time.
Thank you for your inspiration. Long may it continue.
Mind Webssssssssssssssssssssssss
The sounds of my whole life
Not only yours
Just woke up, found this and it's filling Kasa Kramloc with joy. Thank you.
I grew up in the 70's eating acid and listening to Eno / Fripp & KC.......might explain my struggles with reality...............This music gracefully leaps over all the bullshit and gets to the heart of the matter.......There is no "Pussy Footing".......................
We all want to escape the struggles, even horrors, of reality. The problem with drugs is they only delay the inevitable. Mitigating physical pain, allowing the body to heal, has enormous benefits. However, the psychological part of pain must eventually be faced. Sometimes, our circumstances do improve outside our own doing, but they also can deteriorate further. Most often, we are most effective when we take/make purposeful, clear-headed choices and actions. Drugs do have a place and can be fun or provide respite...while you remain in control of their use...once dependency begins, trouble follows...
Just read the Q interview on pussyfootin....and somehow remembered there were other collabs, like this one. Music for the sake of music, no egos, no showoff...just music floating up and filling the room...beautiful.
Прекрасная музыка
Can you recreate the set up of the EMS AKS used on this, maybe with the help of Brian Eno? Apparently, the AKS' matrix can bring something like 1.35 x 10^33 combinations, I know it's a problem, but it shall not be lost! Moreover, Uli Behringer is speaking about reissuing the AKS/VCS-3 for a while!
this music is
I agree
Every note resonates in my soul.
Ironic: First heard this in 1975 while I was in school for biomedical engineering (RPI) and a fraternity brother had this piece on reel-to-reel tape (as was the only way to hear it on tape then) and it made a deep impression. Was going through a lot of stuff then, never graduated w that degree. Had it on LP CD and meditated specifically to this exquisite song. Now 50 years older me just listened to it while taking my first of a series of esketamine treatments for depression, ie, my first semi-"trip" psychedelic experience. It's to try to reconfigure the traumatized brain & increase plasticity on a deep level to escape the mental glue traps & ancient emotional tape loops.
Got another on Thursday, dare I listen to "No Pussyfooting"?😉
Turning years to moments----------- .
thank you Robert!
J'ai le vinyl acheté à l'époque.
I have listened to this since the 70s and it is still hauntingly beautiful.
@3:55 to 4:05 the subtle conjunction of the guitar distortion and bass note on the grand piano - sublime moments in recorded history..
tengo 69 años, he crecido con toda la música principalmente inglesa desde mi adolescencia; éso ha abierto un mundo dentro mío y sigue actualmente el mismo proceso. Mientras trabajo (soy diseñador gráfico) escucho siempre "A Blessing of Tears", y simplemente me ilumina el Alma, no tengo otra forma de explicarlo. He ido a tus conciertos en Buenos Aires (soy argentino) también con King Crimson y G3 con Vai y Satriani, y cada día me convenzo más que eres iluminado por algo superior para construir tu música. Puedo irme de este mundo en paz cuando llegue mi hora, porque has contribuido a mi sensibilidad y crecimiento espiritual. Tank you Master!
Sit back, relax, listen to all the tracks
Thanks Robert, just what I needed just when I needed it.
I closed my eyes❤❤❤ sweet soft smooth music beautiful❗️🎶🙏👍🎸🎹
Hauntingly wonderful🎼
Bought this album as a 15 year old in the 1980’s and this song is still on my playlist all the time. The era of Frippertronics
This one Live at St Paul!
More and more ever
Peak Fripp.
You must not listen to him much if you think peak Fripp was almost 50 years ago……he has progressed as a musician 20 times over since then.
at least technically, you're correct: out of the many peaks he's had, this was the one that blew the amp's speaker in the middle of the take
@@VolodyaVolodenka1981 you are not very bright are you.
"Ah, got it. Brian Eno is often associated with the genre of ambient and experimental music. Considering the connection with Eno, the musician you're referring to could be Robert Fripp. Fripp is known for his work with King Crimson and his collaborations with Brian Eno, and he fits the description of a musician who plays guitar, often seated, and wears glasses." (ChatGPT)
Remember tripping on LCD with Fripp & Eno. Ah, so sweet!
Today, you'd be tripping on LED. ;)
@@donaldpriola1807 LCD 🤣 I even forgot how to wright it down correctly
Too much LDS in the '60s.
@@kpaasial Hahahahaha
@@shri777 You made my day, so don't worry.
As with all good music, this piece has never ending possibilities. For me, it can slip into drippy romantic melancholy but the attack and over-driven wildness of one of the guitars always helps bring it back. Its beauty is in its consonance and symmetry, keeping a reign on any insubstantial weirdness. A fantastic recording where timbre is content.
one of my favorite RF solo. Makes me dislike this modern digital fuzz sounds, This one is so sweet and rich. Please take back your old big muff and Gibson etc... dear Robert.
thanks for being you !
simply beautiful
I used to listen to this song while reading “this is how you lose the time war”.
Perfect match
This is a track pregnant with potentiality. The first time I heard it evoked in me the idea of being completely alone in a holiday cottage, with no-one knowing where I was, and then suddenly a letter dropping in the letter box, addressed to me personally. Curiously enough, as I found out much later, Brian Eno hails from a family of postmen!
I wish Lary Basilio covering it❤
The artwork grabs you. Then the music sucks you in.
Just found this vinyl today. Best 5 bucks I’ve spent!!
if you could play the improvisation at 2:30 of moonchild I will die peacefully
🎶✨🌜🌟🌛✨🎶
This is lovely but I find An Index of Metals a bit of a challenge!
From Rosario, Argentina, saludos Robert
I'm so glad that the whole album is now finally on you tube!🥰🕯
Grazie Bob grazie Brian
Here from white death
Sheer beauty.
Thank you, Fripp
thanks !
🌠✡One of my Favorites....I've told u that before..& wind on water is Heavenly..🙏📿
