Not one of its songs is as great as 1986's "Dreamtime," though.

I have played this album at least twice a day for the last week (when I discovered it). Those vocal parts on "...4/4 Time" blow me away.

What's the chances.....
Dug this out last night after an age. I'd played Aladdin Sane and had to take it off because it was annoying me, but Darryl hit that spot perfick.

What is the short spacey one on this? "Far as I am from you" or something? Totally haunting, very evocative of loneliness

Love that, like from a parallel universe.

Finally found a copy of this in the wild last weekend -- I had read about it before, but I didn't expect that I'd love it so much.
I think this record has finally given me a proper appreciation for Fripp. He takes a fairly meat-and-potatoes rock song like "Survive" and just drizzles these sublime harmonics all over it, and it totally elevates the material.
It's too bad it didn't work out -- I'm now convinced that Hall & Fripp would've been way more interesting than Hall & Oates, but apparently RCA just wasn't havin it.
