Found And Not Lost - Chapter 8. "Easy Money" and "Larks Tongues In Aspic"

Never enough of Wetton, Brufford, Cross and Fripp doing their magic in such a beastful, bastardously amazing way. For all who think they can sing and play bass... The latter is featured heavily from 8:00 on... Try to stay on this kind of musical ROCKET rousing skywards if you dare. 9:48 and you're in outer space. To fresh ears it might sound like a load of noise, because the old film has unmixed AM radio sound built in, but once you get used to it.... you'll appreciate.






Oh and have you seen Jamie Muir in creeping out and in the shadows with the artillery of his sound toys? Whistles, bells, chains, brackets, bumble-buzzers, hammers, cables and flanges. Now talk about playing on most anything that passes through your hands... Wanna try?
"Larks Tongues In Aspic Part 1" was for it's time one of the most experimental and avantgarde approaches to playing live music in British rock.
