Frippertronics[edit]

No mention of Frippertronics or of the (acknowledged) debt owed by Brian Eno to the tape delay system Riley used extensively on this work? I'll look for cites. -MaxFlux (talk) 02:11, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wasn't Rainbow recorded a few years before Fripp developed Frippertronics? Regards, Orange Suede Sofa (talk) 02:25, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

-MaxFlux (talk) 00:10, 2 November 2013 (UTC) I could have said it more clearly, I think. My understanding is that Fripp learned the system from Eno, who I believe has credited Riley explicitly. I've seen some references to Pauline Oliveros using a similar tape delay construction, as well. Looking into it as I et the time.[reply]

Eight Track Recording[edit]

Ban evasion by User:Sugar Bear, using Washington state IPs.

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

This was not the first eight track recording by CBS. These machines were first built by Ampex in the 1950s used then by Les Paul. Columbia/CBS had one of these in their Los Angeles studio in the early 1960s. The Byrds recorded Mr Tambourine Man and other songs on the same type of machine in 1964.24.143.103.204 (talk) 08:14, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think your edit is mostly fine, because a first recording is also an early recording, but the statement that it was the first recording was sourced to an interview with Terry Riley himself. Of course he could be wrong or mis-remembering, so it would be interesting if you have another source claiming otherwise. Regards, Orange Suede Sofa (talk) 22:23, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
