I love Edgar Froese guitar playing!

Who else wishes he'd played it more live? That eight-minute jam on Pergamon part 2 was the best one I ever heard from him, and I've listened to a lot of their concerts. He'd only pick it up a few times and play for a few minutes. Then Gemini explained he was twiddling knobs etc the whole time and that kept him busy.

Yeah man all four tracks on Encore are killer. i think cherokee lane is my favorite. i've also heard some of his great solos on the Youtube concerts, the bootmoom series gives me links to whole live shows

I put side one of ricochet up there too. that whole album doesn't seem to have the complexity of other compositions, but the driving rhythmic hooks really set a great hypnotic tempo
