Progressive Electronica

BRIAN ENO     A prolific ambient electronic musician, composer and record producer. He's perhaps best-known for having once been a member of Roxy Music, but he's also worked with a whole string of top-drawer artists, including David Bowie, David Byrne, Harold Budd & Robert Fripp, to name just four. In a long and complicated discography, there are simply too many Brian Eno solo albums to list them all here in one sitting, and so, with No Pussyfooting around and without further ado, I'll begin listing the albums here one by one until I'm through.  1973: Fripp & Eno - No Pussyfooting - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_m_y7trGr2Q3Shr1osj1i2YmUSEYA5ygMo

Heldon are an avant-garde Progressive Electronic band led by Frenchman Richard Pinhas. It may be pure Frippery for me to say this, but Heldon sound like a curious cross between King Crimson, Jade Warrior & Tangerine Dream, although not in a particularly good way.

Makes one think that she just went home to get married and have kids, unsatisfied that she could not stay in TD since one guy doesn't like women and thinks he is the son of Froese ... instead of Jerome, who refused to be a part of the 2nd rate TD since Edgar's passing due to the lack of vision and articulate musicianship rather than just mechanics! Still nice, but nowhere near the quality of the earlier stuff, and DEFINITELY, the live shows with Linda and Iris were incredible and far out ... and deserve a lot more credit than they are given ... not to mention that the innovation of the old stuff in this new style fit really well and was constructed beautifully!  I imagine that some credit of this is to Linda and her abilities as an arranger and composer, herself, and someone that probably had a good idea of what could be done with a piece of music, instead of just remaining on a riff, or a sound.
