REISSUE

CD reissue of this 1993 collaboration between vocalist David Sylvian (Japan) and guitarist Robert Fripp (King Crimson). Fripp was a guest on David Sylvian's 1986 album GONE TO EARTH. Sylvian/Fripp evolved as an extension of that collaboration, initially with gigs as a trio with future King Crimson member Trey Gunn on stick, followed by a full length studio album with the addition of Jerry Marotta on drums, Marc Anderson on percussion and vocalist Ingrid Chavez. The album was recorded by David Bottrill in Woodstock NY and New Orleans. Experimental yet accessible, song driven yet leaving ample room for instrumental exploration, THE FIRST DAY is a great advert for such occasional meetings insofar as it manages to showcase the individual strengths of both artists while drawing something new and unexpected from their joint work. As such it is one of the best remembered of the many collaborative recordings by both artists.
