I Advance Masked I Advance Masked is a 1982 album by English guitarists Andy Summers and Robert Fripp. It is the pair's first of two album collaborations ("Bewitched" would follow in 1984), and it consists of 13 instrumental tracks. According to Summers, the album was "a synthesis of two guys who grew up playing guitar, heard the Beatles, listened to jazz, have been influenced by Oriental music and Steve Reich, but still happen to be playing in a rock context. Every track started the same way, just two guitars. On some of them I played a little bass or put on a bit of percussion or string synthesizer. There are no drums but you don't miss them. Some of it is very accessible and some is very avant-garde".

Pop art Pop art is an art movement that emerged in the mid-1950s in Britain and the late 1950s in the United States. The movement presented a challenge to traditions of fine art by including imagery from popular and mass culture, such as advertising, comic books and mundane cultural objects. One of its aims is to use images of "popular" (as opposed to elitist) culture in art, emphasizing the banal or kitschy elements of any culture, most often through the use of irony. It is also associated with the artists' use of mechanical means of reproduction or rendering techniques. In pop art, material is sometimes visually removed from its known context, isolated, or combined with unrelated material.

Pure Music Pure Music was the third and final album by jazz-rock fusion band Chase. The failure to sell the "Ennea" LP on a mass market forced Bill Chase to re-group several times and come up with a new musical approach; the result was "Pure Music". Though much of the music released on the album had been performed by the band over a span of a year and half, the new musical direction was a departure from vocal dominated songs and focusing more on jazz/rock instrumental tunes to showcase Bill's dynamic playing style. The over-all effect had a more "commercial" appeal and was highly popular among high school and college band students. Jim Peterik had co-written two vocal numbers for the album and to be performed live as well "Run Back To Mama" and "Love Is On The Way" a third vocal version of the song entitled 'Pure Music' was scrapped from the LP because it did not sound enough like 'Chase.' Versions of "Bochawa" and "Close Up Tight" were forever being altered on the road. There was also talk about Jim Peterik joining the band full-time.
