Richard Barbieri on his own
Richard Barbieri - Things Buried
Originally the keyboardist for Japan and its later incarnation, Rain Tree Crow, Richard Barbieri also recorded an album with his wife as Indigo Falls, was a member of the Dolphin Brothers (a project with Japan drummer Steve Jansen) lent his skills to the Tim Bowness/Steven Wilson project No-Man, and ended up a full-fledged member of Wilson’s prolific prog band, Porcupine Tree. Somehow, in addition to all that, he found time to record a solo album. “Things Buried” is a showcase of what Barbieri does best – beautiful dark ambient synth music, with an occasional bit of synth pop. The album also features the fretless bass of Percy Jones, bassist for Brand X, and for several Brian Eno albums (including my favorite one, “Before and After Science”).
After enjoying this track (Fear and Trembling), pick up a copy of the CD for $15.99.
