I have a feeling that they'd be nowhere as good now as they were before 1996 or so. They have really changed their style since then. I really liked what they did up to the "Orbus Terrarum" CD, and I think the "Pomme Fritz" CD is one of the best electronic CD's to come out in the 90's. For an interesting discovery, check out The Tape-Beatles. In 1991, the Orb got a hold of their first two tapes, and have been integrating the material from it into their shows. You'd be surprised by how many things you once thought were created by the Orb, when in fact, they were just playing a Tape Beatles tape. The first few minutes of "Live 93" are a perfect example. http://pwp.detritus.net/ Matt >From: "Patrick Bailey" <patthelooper@hotmail.com> >Reply-To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com >To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com >Subject: Re: The Orb >Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2001 09:51:36 -0700 > >I've seen the Orb a few times, they are hit and miss.
