mjzee Posted June 18, 2013 Report Posted June 18, 2013 Finally to be rereleased July 30. Anyone who's never heard it is in for a....uh, treat: Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted June 18, 2013 Report Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) It was the early 70s! I remember this - 1973, 1974? - wasn't Brian Eno involved (before he became Brian)? To answer my own question: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portsmouth_Sinfonia They seem to have had follow ups to their 'hit'. Edited June 18, 2013 by A Lark Ascending Quote
mracz Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 I remember Gavin saying that he sent copies of the LP to both Bernstein and Boulez. Bernstein wrote back immediately and enthusiastically, Boulez declined to comment... Quote
sidewinder Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) wasn't Brian Eno involved (before he became Brian)? Is that him on trombone? (same row at the back with Jeff Lynn and the guy from ZZ Top) Edited June 19, 2013 by sidewinder Quote
clifford_thornton Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 Kinda looks like him, though Eno played woodwinds IIRC. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 Pro musicians were supposed to play instruments with which they weren't familiar. MG Quote
mjzee Posted June 19, 2013 Author Report Posted June 19, 2013 I couldn't find an image of the back cover on the Web. IIRC, it lists the musicians and their instruments. Quote
