David Sylvian & Robert Fripp - Earthbound [Starblind] (original full length version)

Simply beautiful.
I wanted this to be my first upload on this channel because it's quite possibly my all time favourite 'song'.
The full length version of "Earthbound [Starblind]" by David Sylvian & Robert Fripp, taken from the very limited edition 'Jean The Birdman" Part 1 C.D single. 1993.
I was fortunate enough to buy a copy of this when it was first released for a mere 50 pence (English currency). The best bargain I have ever bought.

Uploaded for my dear friends [Robbi] Tussin and Donna - where ever you both may be. You know who you are :)
Peace and Love.

I was aware of the (drastically shortened) version on "Damage" (live Sylvian/Fripp album), but never heard this full version- magical. Wish it was on one of Sylvian's various compilation CD's... just amazing.

@DarkeningSkies1 I agree. It is superb and worthy of a re release.

[Mistcatcher]

@snufkin789 You're so right

[UniversalAngel13]

Your pain is the breaking of the shell

that encloses your understanding.

Much of your pain is self-chosen.

It is the bitter potion by which the

physician within you heals your sick self.

… Therefore trust the physician, and drink

his remedy in silence and tranquility.

- Khalil Gibran
