I wasn't looking for it, and then "Out of the Blue" there it was!

Eddie Jobson playing M400 mellotron, keyboards, plexiglass violin.
...and John Wetton.

HOT violin solo!

Yes, very cool violin solo- I think only to be topped by the version on
their "viva" live album which is also awesome. Boy, sometimes I forget
how good they were.

During "CSI" last night on CBS there was a promo for this Friday
night's "Close To Home" in which they used Roxy's "In Every Dream
Home A Heartache". Nice!

2 thumbs up for "Viva!". A fabulous live album. Too bad it was
only a single LP.

"Soundtracks For Imaginary Movies" CD released Dec 2004
"Codetalkers" CD coming very soon in 2006
NP: nothing

Hey! Who knows, if there are extra tapes in existance of the "viva" 
gigs then maybe someday a re-issue will appear with extra tracks or a 
disk? Something like all the recent King Crimson releases of live 
material. We can only hope. :)

Maybe all of us interested have to start writing to the 
Roxy/Manazanera site to express our interest in this. There must be 
some early live Roxy material of decent quality that is worthy of a 
proper release... I'm interested.

material. 
Let's all hope it is of better quality then some of the KC stuff that's
been released. It sounds to me like Thomas Edison recorded some of their
shows.
 
>>>
 
Now THAT'S a nifty lo-fi pre-'tron throw-back idea - put 35 wax
cylinders on a constantly spinning shaft, and have the keyboard actuate
the setting of the needle onto the groove - and the needle snaps back to
the start of the groove every time you lift the key..hmmmmm..I guess
you'd need 35 horns, too...Can you imagine the sounds coming out of
something like that?!?
