Doesn't ring a bell - was it NEAR the Science Centre? Or was it downtown? This could help.
I am intrigued!

I seem to remember it being very close to the Science Centre, but then again this was some 30 years ago...

And Mick: What Crimson elpee are you talking about...?

I am talking about "discipline", the red album....

Possibly the only "rock" album I ever liked..the two follow-ups, "beat" and "three of a perfect pair" were also very cool....

Although not really african, or african tinged liked Paul Simon "graceland"..these albums for me, were almost like exotica..music ABOUT africa, but not FROM africa..and I guess that's the distinction in my mind!
The duel guitars of fripp and Belew are to me, a lot like balafons (african xylophones) in thier approach, and Tony levin's stick playing brings to mind the large african bass harp, the double-bass of africa!

Of course I really like authentic african music too, like Salif Keita, for example...don't care too much for Fela, however...too hippy for me!
