Description

Original Label. “Evening Star” (1975) is an album by the British ambient musicians Robert Fripp and Brian Eno. The cover is a painting by the artist Peter Schmidt. The first three tracks are serene, gentle tape-looped guitar textures performed by Robert Fripp and accented with treatments.

The second half of the album is a groundbreaking twenty-eight minute piece of drone music titled “An Index of Metals”, in which guitar notes are accumulated in a loop, with distortion increasing as the track progresses.
