You mean Varèse? Cool! Who's conducting?
I have two Varèse records, one conducted by Kent Nagano (and soprano by Phyllis Bryn-Julson (200 Motels) with most works, and another one which I
can't recall now but it's been released on Decca, with all works.

they're great, in my opinion.
Absence is very noisy and cold. It reminds me of Godflesh but in a rap format.
From filthy tongue of gods and griots is a bit different, it's calmer and a bit brighter than Absence but remains quite different from you usual
hiphop band.
very good albums, I recommend buying Absence first, I think you won't regret it.

Haven't been hearing much of it yet.. except for How Could I Be Such A Fool, which is as beautiful as ever. But review! Good idea!
Also I bought a vinyl of Ravel-Bolero and La valse, and Dukas l'Apprenti sorcier, and Saint-Saëns Danse Macabre conducted by Bernhard Haitink.

yeah How Could I Be Such A Fool sounds amazing on the original Freak Out. In fact, out of all the albums i reckon Freak Out sounds the best production
wise. I suppose it's because he got a whole lot of money to do that one didn't he?

I wouldn't know that... sonically my favourites are the digital ones, especially CP3. Like he knew it was going to be his last chance to do it
properly.
Somehow the earlier FZ albums (like FO and Absolutely Free) all sound like they came out of a can to me...

My 4 cd MOFO finally arrived yesterday, two weeks in the mail and £10 Custons charge later.....Great though, a true "making of" for sure........As for
the packaging, I had no trouble getting the discs out at all......

Its really wonderful actually! It truly is an "audio documentary", without wanting to sound tacky. It seems to make Freak Out! totally complete. I do
feel kinda miffed buying the little MOFO as well as the 4cd, cos I was under the impression the 2 cd contained stuff not on the 4 cd, and vice
versa.....Ho Hum. I wouldve no doubt ended up buying it anyway!
Big MOFO is worth getting though. Disc 3 is maybe the highlight, lotsa unreleased things going on there. The basic tracks version of the tunes are
great too tough, as it enables the listener to really "get inside" the tracks, if that makes sense? Even the interview stuff is good. Its like they
trawled the vault for any FO! related stuff and through it on.
TOTALLY RECOMMENDED.
