Performer Notes

Originally released in download-only format through the King Crimson website under the name THE COTSWOLD GNOMES, the ironically titled UNRELEASED WORKS OF STERLING GENIUS contains outtakes, demos, and other rarities from the archives of Crimson mainman Robert Fripp and his longtime cohort, ambient pioneer Brian Eno. While much of the material here is on the order of the placid, minimalist work Fripp and Eno have released together previously, there are moments of unbridled energy as well, like the thrashing, prog-rock fury of "Cross Crisis in Lust Storm." Mostly, though, Fripp's liquid guitar lines play against Eno's electronic treatments in the atmospheric soundscape format the pair helped to pioneer.

Professional Reviews

The Wire (p.57) - "[T]here's no doubting Eno's mastery of his tools and his eager adoption of contemporary beats..."

Harp (magazine) (p.122) - "[A] mix of hypnotic ambience, jarring dissonance, oscillating rhythms and electronically inspired journeys to the center of your mind."
