Fripp & Eno ‎– (No Pussyfooting) VG+/VG+

Released in 1973, (No Pussyfooting) is the debut collaboration between rock visionary Robert Fripp and ambient music pioneer Brian Eno. The album marks the beginning of their groundbreaking explorations in sound, using tape loops and Fripp’s distinct “Frippertronics” guitar technique to craft a unique and influential soundscape. (No Pussyfooting) consists of two extended pieces, each showcasing a different approach. “The Heavenly Music Corporation” features Fripp’s soaring, echoed guitar lines weaving through a bed of slowly decaying loops created by Eno, building a sense of expansive tranquility. The second piece, “Swastika Girls,” takes a more electronic turn, with Eno’s manipulated sounds and textures forming a base for Fripp’s atmospheric and occasionally abrasive guitar work. The overall effect is one of mesmerizing beauty and unsettling tension, a landmark recording that helped define the possibilities of experimental and ambient music.
