David Sylvian -  gone to earth - (1986)


Vinyl LP also includes an impressive mix of instrumentals and vocals that range from the very accessible Silver Moonright through to more experimental instrumentals. A superb blend of timeless, dreamy ambient sounds with glimpses of darkness & improvisation expanded later with a notable performance in particular from Robert Fripp. Set housed in a superb glossy gatefold picture sleeve.

On his solo records of the '80s, Sylvian's explorations in music took him from the pop-funk, stylish jazz and windswept exotica of 1984's Brilliant Trees; the ambient landscapes and epic ballads of 1985's Gone to Earth; and the romantic orchestrations of 1987's Secrets of the Beehive. His collaborators included leaders of progressive music, from jazzmen such as Mark Isham, John Taylor and Kenny Wheeler to the rock and fusion guitarists Robert Fripp, Bill Nelson, and David Torn. All three albums married strong melodies to intricate atmospheres.
