2005 release. "Minimalist pioneer Tony Conrad and notorious Krautrock progenitors Faust met just three times: in the studio to record the ground-breaking Outside the Dream Syndicate in 1972, and twice on the concert stage in the mid-1990s. This recording documents their third and final encounter, at Queen Elizabeth Hall, London, February 18, 1995. The difference between the original session and this live event is astonishing. While Conrads aggressive string sound was tamed in the studio by producer Uwe Nettlebeck (Conrad has complained that the mix made him sound like a hippy), here it is full of menace and ferocity, and in tandem attack with the equally belligerent violin of Jim ORourke, it conjures a raging wall of sound.." - Table Of The Elements.
