Album Info

Release Date: 2014-09

Label: T&R

All KiTsuNe (Japanese for fox) versions are based on this original by Robert Wyatt, called Brian The Fox.
It's an early version of the song that eventually was released on Robert Wyatt - Cuckooland.
That album also presents Tom Hay's Fox, that sampled KiTsuNe 02.03 from KiTsuNe.

Robert Wyatt (Summer 2013):
towards the end of the 20th century, Tomoyasu sent me a message asking something like;
"do you have any piece of new material we could work on"-----?
I did have. Brian the Fox was an un-placed, un-worked basic idea I had.
unusual for me in that it had no strict tempo, and the words were an attempt to write a text even shorter than a Haiku!
(I just recorded it directly onto tape at home, on cassette, no 'production'.)
the music ending was improvised – the delay before the final chords was me trying to choose the final few chords…
I sent this to Tomoyasu and Tomoko.
they have enhanced the idea beautifully.
