I found a much cleaner, higher quality version of the set released on CD in 2002, but overall I prefer this with the VHS artefacts (noise, compression, monophonic sound and tiny incidental jump-cuts), so I'm posting both variants in one vid.
Although it's more or less just the original Radiohead track layered with beats, Funkstörung clearly made the beat specifically to go with the track; it's credited on the CD as 'Radiohead "Kid A" w/Funkstörung "Beat A"'.

Most people seem to think the drum & bass-ish "Angry Dolphin" is the strongest track on this record, but "Anything" is definitely my favourite. Black Dog playfulness in full effect, though more staccato and minimal than usual.

The title translates as "The Red Book of Montserrat" and refers to the manuscript from which these pieces are taken. The manuscript was compiled circa 1399 at the Montserrat monastery outside Barcelona, and is still located there.
Quoting the compiler of the manuscript:
"Quia interdum peregrini quando vigilant in ecclesia Beate Marie de Monte Serrato volunt cantare et trepudiare, et etiam in platea de die, et ibi non debeant nisi honestas ac devotas cantilenas cantare, idcirco superius et inferius alique sunt scripte. Et de hoc uti debent honeste et parce, ne perturbent perseverantes in orationibus et devotis contemplationibus."
"Because the pilgrims wish to sing and dance while they keep their watch at night in the church of the Blessed Mary of Montserrat, and also in the light of day; and in the church no songs should be sung unless they are chaste and pious, for that reason these songs that appear here have been written. And these should be used modestly, and take care that no one who keeps watch in prayer and contemplation is disturbed."

"The piano music was recorded in a home studio. The transfer to multitrack, further instrumentation and first mixing took place at the "Lux Mondi" studio, Rotterdam in late February 1983. Further additions and the completions of individual pieces were done at home on the Erpel Portable Studio during the following May. In early October the album was finished without fundamental changes to the original material recorded, at the Hit Box Studio, 1120 Vienna, Aichholzgasse 32, with help of recording engineer Eric Spitzer-Marlyn.
"My sincere thanks go to Jurjen Drenth and Margriet Spierings for their kind hospitality during my stay at their house and for making the recording in Holland possible. Thanks to Coen de Neef for the use of his studio and his valuable assistance during the recording and initial mixing. Thanks to Eefje Jager for taking part. Thank you, Eric Spitzer-Marlyn for your kind help and your creative input. Thanks to Felix Jay for putting things together."

Volume 2: «Jean Ritchie is a national treasure, one of America's finest and best known traditional singers. She grew up in Viper, Kentucky, and is part of a large family, the famous "Singing Ritchies of Kentucky." The ballads on this recording are outstanding Appalachian versions of the "Child ballads," English and Scottish narrative songs collected and published by scholar Francis James Child in the late 19th century. The songs tell of true and lost love, jealousy, treachery, grief, death, and the supernatural. This landmark Folkways recording brings her clear, pure voice and timeless songs to new generations of listeners.»

Review by Fat_controller on discogs:
"Designer electronics, with a strong and clear mission statement and aesthetic. No nonsense and dry to the bone looping oscillations that turn psychoactive when you allow them some time. The wild screeching electronics on top provide the thunder for the psychedelia, while the robust, relentless and downright stubborn architecture of the tracks provide the industrial context for a true dystopian episode."

Trivia: whereas the title track starts abruptly on the 2007 reissue, it faded in on the original '89 release. I have used the much higher quality files for the '07 version but edited the first few seconds to quite accurately reproduce the OG. I even went to the nerdy trouble of taking as good a picture as I could of my own copy and cleaning it up in an image editor, because there were no half decent pics of the first edition cover to be found online.
P.S. a lot of people on the internet have tracks B1 and B2 mixed up. To be clear: "AMBIENCE with TEETH" is the track with AMBIENCE and a WOLF howl sample. The track with the line "who's gonna take THE WEIGHT" is "THE WEIGHT".
This was the first Black Dog record. The Black Dog were Ed Handley, Andy Turner and Ken Downie.

This version was recorded by Peter Kennedy. Francis McPeake sang and played the uilleann pipes (bagpipes) on it. The bellows of these pipes are inflated using one's elbow, thus he could sing and play simultaneously.
«"She Moved Through the Fair" is a traditional Irish folk song, which exists in a number of versions and has been recorded many times. The narrator sees his lover move away from him through the fair, after telling him that since her family will approve, "it will not be long, love, till our wedding day". She returns as a ghost at night, and repeats the words "it will not be long, love, till our wedding day", intimating her own tragic death and the couple's potential reunion in the afterlife.»

Apart from the transitions (which are abrupt even in the film itself), I have made no edits apart from changing the audio in the final 30 seconds; I wanted to include the shot without mangling Herzog's narration. I used a different piece from the same opera ("Tristan und Isolde") that Herzog selected for that scene. In the context of this compilation it serves only as a brief epilogue.
I recommend anyone watch the whole film, and of course, no disrespect is intended by cutting Herzog's requiem for Katia and Maurice Krafft. We are indebted to them for their courage in capturing these amazing images, and to Herzog for collating them as they deserved to be seen.

Herzog also used footage filmed by the Kraffts in "Into the Inferno", from which I cut part of this video: «Werner Herzog Reads from the Poetic Edda (Völuspá)"
