Holiday Music Fare

The Faust is good stuff, David. Their version of the Hollow Men seems to 
predate hip-hop by some 30 odd years. The BBC and 71 minutes are more 
coherent, IMHO.

I also just ordered the CD soundtrack for an Italian movie called the Cold 
Eyes of Fear (1971), by the prolific Enrico Marricone--great offbeat 
jazz-fusion improv stuff.  Fans of 73-74 King Crimson, Miles Davis electric 
period will dig it very much.  Heard it on one of the good radio stations 
(i.e. few) here in NYC over the weekend. wfmu
