Robert Fripp - Exposure Box Set (Steven Wilson Remix coming soon!)

[H.A.L.]

Will it include the Eno collaborations as well?

Would love having NO PUSSYFOOTING and EVENING STAR in surround. Again I'll cry out in the wilderness: Why does Eno never release any of his solo work in surround???

Sure, we get the bands he produced like Talking Heads, etc., in surround. I find it odd that someone so into tech doesn't bother with surround in his own recordings. Maybe Fripp and Wilson will talk him into it .

I agree, you'd think Eno would want to. His note in Ambient 4 (which I imagine many of us have seen) from 1982 reflects that dichotomy - clearly then he was tempted, but realised few would hear it. I'm sure he does realise that it is more practical now but I suppose he has moved on - it's in his nature to be constantly looking forward. So perhaps he does need a good talking to, as you suggest!

Found this on the other forum:


An interview with Fripp is in the February 2022 Uncut. It’s mainly about Music For Quiet Moments (given an 8/10 and Reissue of the Month), but the interview ended with:

The Exposure box is coming up soon, which is exciting. Can you tell us more about to expect?

There’s lots and lots of CDs in there. [laughs] Exposure was recorded in 1978 and 1979 and released in 1979. So, the boxset is taking a wide view of that year, including the early Frippertronics, through to the League of Gentlemen. It’s an expanded moment, essentially from 1977 to 1980. It forms a bridge between King Crimson completing its work in 1974 and beginning again in 1981. It looks at that period in between. It think there’s something like 28 CDs. And the scrapbook is superb.

I really think that there will be a lot that people on here will love about this set and what it has to offer.

[Godman]

Wow!! this exciting news. Lets hope there is plenty of 5.1 to enjoy as well.

 

[H.A.L.]

Time to start selling blood.

Hopefully here is a less expensive version that comes with a Blu-ray.

Hopefully here is a less expensive version that comes with a Blu-ray.

Maybe? Or a DVD-A, like the individual album Crimson sets. Hard to say.

 

[ssully]

28 CDs is absurd.

A little League of Gentlemen (the least funky 'dance band' that ever existed) goes a long way.

Couple quick takeaways from the announcement:
• Quad mixes!?
• Standalone DVD of the main album for those who don't want to shell out for the box

Also - if the box doesn't include a 24/192 recording of "Come My Way" in Atmos and quad I'm not gonna bite - lol

 

[Marplot]

I guess after the Heaven & Earth boxset Robert told them to 'hold his beer'.
That is a loaded box, although I think I will settle for just the CD/DVD version ...

 

[ctoelle]

Finally! I'm in for the big box. Longtime fan of this era

 

[madship]

I'm thrilled that there is an album only version of this. Ordered the CD/DVD version. It'd be better as a CD/Blu-ray, but I'll take this,

There is a second disc available from the time period.

[Hamilton59]

Woo Hoo!!! This is wonderful, what a great box set!
and Ordered!!!

 

[SHB]

The box set looks like a great value for the money. But I went with the CD/DVD version.

I was at one or two of those Frippertronics shows. Alas they weren't as electrifying as the Kitchen shows a year or two earlier.
