DISCOGRAPHY OF

This is the sixth version of the discography of Fred Frith. It includes many corrections and a few additions.

Following items are:

• discography, • records (co)produced by Fred Frith, • bootlegs, • records with samples of Frith's music, • Rift catalogue.

Again, we would really appreciate any comments, corrections and extra infor- mations which could improve the quality of this discography. Specially, if people could send us information/correction on:

• missing records and tapes, • wrong references (on dates, , etc), • extra references (for vinyl, CD, or different pressings); for example, we are still looking for informations on the following records:

• SKELETON CREW: Skeleton Crew (1982 - no label (CT)) • LIVE, WURZBURG, 10/82: Skeleton Crew (1984 - Recommended (SW), ??? (CT)) • WONDERFUL LIFE: Chris Stamey (1994 - East Side Digital, ESD 80682 (CD)) • SIEBZEHNMAL: Michaela Dietl (1998 - Gema (???), ??? (CD))

1996 - Plag Dich Nicht (Austria), 002 (CD)

Note by Jon Rose: This record is an edited version of the piece TECHNO MIT STORUNGEN that took place on 11/11/95 as part of the festival "music unli- mited" at Alter Schlachthof Wels, Austria. The original piece lasted two and a half hours. The DAT used for this CD was recorded directly off the mixer, consequently there were some problems with the balance and sound on the tape which would not have been audible in the concert space. So to compensate, this document you are listening to now has been a little "produced" using standard studio techniques... Hopefully it retains the spirit of the origi- nal performance.
