Friends & Enemies is the complete recordings (1979-1999) by Henry Kaiser and Fred Frith, who, separately & together, have both pushed the boundaries of what can be done in music and with their instruments for many decades now. This includes the albums "With Friends Like These", "Who Needs Enemies", their unreleased live album, and 30 minutes of material ßrecorded expressly for this set in January, 1999! Despite the fact that both players are "guitarists", there is a very wide range of sounds & styles to be found here. More than half of this material has never been on CD before.
