  • Robert Fripp - Behind the scenes at Windows Vista recording session

    Fripp doing this is a big deal.  Big salute to Steve Ball.  Congrats Robert!

    If I may...

    This is not a performance per se, but more of a sound capture. 

    For those who don't know him, but may be interested in looking for samples of Robert's work, here is a small iceberg tip with a varied landscape.  Just one subjective opinion of course, but this covers a lot of ground.

    King Crimson: Discipline, Red, Power to Believe (or the box sets)
    League of Crafty Guitarists: Live in Europe
    David Bowie:  Scary Monsters
    Soundscapes series
    Fripp and Eno:  Essential
    Peter Gabriel 2
    League of Gentlemen: God Save the King


    One thing Robert is known for is his legendary "burning guitar" solos.  Some of them just grab you and throw you up against a wall. 

    His sister's recordings of his, ahem, audience chats on a soundscapes tour, called "Fripp Unplugged" are hilarious.

    Cheers.






  • Robert Fripp - Behind the scenes at Windows Vista recording session

    Fripp is very definitely NOT new age. 

    A very influential and cool musician who's played just about every type of music (except 12-bar blues) exceptionally well.
