Fripp & Eno - (No Pussyfooting)

Released in the same year as Eno's more rock-based solo album Here Come the Warm Jets it received negative reaction from their record label, Island Records, who were actively opposed to it.
Eno was attempting to launch a solo career, having just left Roxy Music, and his management bemoaned the confusion caused by the release of two albums with such different styles.
Fripp's bandmates in King Crimson also disliked the album. Mainstream rock press also didn't pay much attention to the album compared to Fripp's work with King Crimson, or Eno's solo albums.
In the UK, the album was released at a large discount compared to normal album prices and was regarded as something of a musical aside.
