Personnel: Robert Fripp (guitar); Brian Eno (electronics). Personnel: Robert Fripp (guitar, electric guitar); Brian Eno (vocals, keyboards, synthesizer). Audio Remasterers: Robert Fripp; Tony Arnold . Recording information: Command Studios (09/08/1972/08/05/1973); Command Studios, London, England (09/08/1972/08/05/1973); Eno's Studio (09/08/1972/08/05/1973). Photographer: Willie Christie. Robert Fripp's most celebrated version of King Crimson was at its peak when he took time off to record a decidedly non-rock album with his art-rock buddy Brian Eno. Both Fripp and Eno were always the most adventurous, experimental elements in their '70s bands (Crimson and Roxy Music respectively), so it's only natural that their collaboration would produce something fairly unconventional. Drawing equally on the minimalist tradition of 20th-century classical music and their own innate textural sensibilities, the duo created one of the first ambient recordings in NO PUSSYFOOTING. It was here that Fripp inaugurated his "Frippertronics" technique, which involved sending his guitar through a labyrinthine series of tape delays. NO PUSSYFOOTING was equally auspicious for Eno, marking his move away from pop song structure toward the ambient soundscapes that would soon define his career. On the album's two extended pieces, Fripp's echoed guitar wraps itself sinuously around Eno's subtle, organic synth washes. The result is a flowing-but-static river of sound, hypnotic and contemplative. For its historical importance, and its durability as an engaging listen, NO PUSSYFOOTING is a milestone in ambient music.

商品の紹介

The Wire (p.67) - "[T]he most commanding presence is Fripp's serpentine electric guitar, rising out of the mist like some mythical beast...uncoiling extended solos..." Stereo Review - Recommended Mojo (Publisher) (p.119) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he mystic guitar and synthesizer tape-loop symphonies on PUSSYFOOTING sound both unholy modern and magically archaic..." Record Collector (magazine) (p.89) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "NO PUSSYFOOTING is hailed as an ambient classic and this vibrant musical tapeworm of drone, echo and diamond-clear guitar still retains strong enough sea legs to mesmerise the listener." Signal To Noise (p.54) - "Overtones abound, introducing what was then newly atmospheric territory, as can be heard in the opening moments of `The Heavenly Music Corporation.'"

At the same time Brian Eno was working on Here Come the Warm Jets, he was flexing his experimental muscle with this album of tape delay manipulation recorded with Robert Fripp. In a system later to be dubbed Frippertronics, Eno and Fripp set up two reel-to-reel tape decks that would allow audio elements to be added to a continuing tape loop, building up a dense layer of sound that slowly decayed as it turned around and around the deck's playback head. Fripp later soloed on top of this. (No Pussyfooting) represents the duo's initial experiments with this system, a side each. "Heavenly Music Corporation" demonstrates the beauty of the setup, with several guitar and synth elements building on top of each other, the music slowly evolving, and Fripp ending the piece with low dive-bombing feedback that swoops over the soundscape, bringing the piece to its conclusion. "Swastika Girls," on the other hand, shows how the system can be abused. With too many disconnected sounds sharing the space, some discordant, some melodic, the resulting work lacks form and structure. Eno and Fripp later refined the system on Evening Star and Eno's solo album Discreet Music. Fripp would take the system and base whole albums and live appearances around it (particularly Let the Power Fall). But it was here on (No Pussyfooting) where it all started. ~ Ted Mills

アンビエントミュージックやエレクトロニカ的な現代音楽好きマストアイテム。イーノが後年進むアンビエントの世界の出発点でありロバート・フリップの延々と続くサウンドスケープが妙な浮遊感を感じさせる。ジャケの鏡の世界が見事にイメージ通り。クリムゾン関連で本に載るけどクリムゾンとは別物なので感覚まっさらにして聴いた方が良いかも。名盤ですね。

CLUSTER&ENOもいいのですが、イーノが目立とうとするとBRIAN ENO/MOEBIUS/ROEDELIUSやHARMONIA&ENOという悪い例が(笑)。本作のぶっ飛び度=☆☆☆☆☆です。
