Loved their music. I was surprised when we got our first Iona Album, to hear sounds so typical for Fripp. When I read the cover, I noticed it really was him. Frankly I don;t know if he is a christian or not. He used to be cosmically conscious...but then again..were'nt we all? So, I recognized the sound before I know it was him........., maybe it depends on style of music. shalom Abraham At 06:38 18/09/98 -0400, Anthony DeBarros wrote: >. _ _ _ >|(_)| )(_| mailto:musictus@musictus.com >Discussion List http://www.gospel.it/iona/ >_______________ > >Having just purchased BtS and JitM to (almost) >complete my Iona collection, I was curious to see >what Robert Fripp's contributions sounded like. >However, in listening to the tracks in which he >appears on, I cannot really hear anything that >sounds distinctly like him.

I was watching = with passing interest until they mentioned that they were approaching a = little island called Lindisfarne. Since the bell intro on that song is = simply incredible, the mention of the name caught my atttention. They = landed their kayaks and proceeded to walk to the ruins of the monestary = on the island. That place is so peaceful and beautiful. They talked = quite a bit about the history of the monestary and how it was torn down = so Henry (I can't remember which one) could use the monestary stones to = build fortresses. The song now seems to have a much deeper meaning now I = know what the place looks like. It looks exactly how the song sounds. = Peaceful, with an ever present spirit of prayer.

Fripp loved them and expressed interest in working with Iona. Dave B had Robert come into the studio for a day where Dave gave Robert some keys and ideas then just recorded the "textures." From what I gathered, Dave worked some of those textures into Iona recordings during production rather than Fripp being there playing with the band. I too find it tough to pick out the Fripp parts but at one time I thought I could point out one place it was fairly clear to hear. I'll have to recheck. I am an Eno fan back since his Roxy Music days (they were great too). Before and After Science is my fav. Dave B mentioned Yes, Gentle Giant and Camel as big influences. He mentioned he had recently (May-June 98) seen Camel live and met with Andy Latimer. FYI. I all started to click as to why I loved Iona because Dave liked all the same music I did growing up (I am a few years older than Dave). When auditioning for music school, he played Mood For A Day. Ah the carefree days of progressive music in the 70's and 80's -- those where the days... But then again we didn't have Iona either. And I am glad "the Dave's" are working together again! 1999 promises to be an exciting year! The Year Of Iona? I may even take a trip to England for the Eye Of The Eagle concert in May. Shall we have a group American pilgrimage back to the mother country? A splendid time guaranteed for all! Stay tuned...

Now, do we have someone on the list who happens to be a travel agent and is willing to consider putting a package together for a group of faithful Iona fans? I for one would like to go to Britain for this special concert, and maybe some sidetracking to Iona and Lindifarne as well. Anybody else interested?

I made the fatal mistake of channel surfing, because I'd tuned in late and didn't know where they were filming. I switched back intime for the credits that thanked Lindisfarne etc. I am still in shock and trying to find a rebroadcast time. I kept saying I wonder if it's Wales, Scotland or Ireland. I'm staying far from the remote for a while as penance.

They are able to write a song that paints SUCH a vivid picture in your head that when/if you actually ever see the actual place (or whatever they wrote the song about) you're just blown away because you feel like you know it or you've been there. Bird of Heaven and Beachy Head (on Beyond These Shores) do that for me especially well. I LOVE IT!

First the number of whistles: there were at least three large (low) whistles. Second at one point in the concert the keyboard was set up to sound like a whistle. But, the whistles are the most common intrument in most songs.

I'm glad to hear in a recent post that Psalm drummers were such a blessing. Can someone who heard them comment more on the concert (I think it was Greenbelt in the UK) Was it all percussion or, were other instruments used?

LOL (sort of) It was all percussion, apart from a little bit of voice! There were no other instruments used at all.

I took my wife to a Cliff Richard concert on Monday at the Royal Albert Hall London, where Cliff was peforming his 40th anniversary concert. Mike was one of two saxophone players in Cliffs backing group. He came onto the main stage for playing solo for several numbers during the show. He seemed to be thoroughly enjoying himself and his playing was brilliant. Seeing him cheered me up because I am not really a Cliff fan - my wife is!!!
