Summary: 

-- EAT THIS --

	Boy, do I agree with you there.  Fripp's solo on "Baby's on Fire"
(Here Come the Warm Jets, Brian Eno) is one of the most amazing things I
*have ever heard* on vinyl.  Even more amazing considering that he did it
in one take.  Another one on that album is "Blank Frank", more truly stunning
stuff.  It's a shame that he never cuts loose like that anymore --  I think
he preferrs technical displays of virtuousity now, rather than blazin' and
amazin' guitar, like in the good old days.  While I like his 10 minute long
songs made up of 16th notes, I often long for more unrestrained music from
the Master...
	Speaking of Eno's guitarist collaborators, in between tracks on 
"Primitive Guitars" (Phil Manzanara, Guitarist for Roxy Music), you will
here some random bits of talking while some Eno albums are being produced,
i.e. You hear a snatch of some Eno song you recognize and then you'll here
"Boy, that really gets in the groove", or "I think we need a bit more echo
here" etc.  An interesting peek into the creative process, and a great album
as well.
