Congratulations to Alan Warren of the splendidly named Lake Hiawatha in New Jersey. Because Alan was able to tell me that the name of Andrew Keeling's most recent collaboration with Robert Fripp was called The Wine Of Silence, he wins a copy of Bells Of Heaven by Andrew. Thanks to everyone who took part and stay tuned for another competition.

Minor To Major
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Sun., Jul 8, 2012
Robert Fripp was in London on Friday, one of the speakers at a panel discussing the current state in the music industry as it relates to the independent label sector.
Organised by AIM (the Association of Independent Music), the panel also included Martin Mills of Beggars, John Dyer of Domino, Peter Quicke of Ninja Tune.
Fripp spoke for around 20 minutes and, as can be seen from some of these tweets, evidently struck a chord with some of the conference’s participants.

My thanks to Spiegel for this heads-up about Deep Schrott (their name means scrap metal) who are described as the only bass saxophone quartet in the universe! Their debut album contains a medley of King Crimson tunes that includes Court and Red.

:: Posted by Sid Smith on Tue., Jul 3, 2012
It seems Def Leppard and UMG have fallen out over a dispute around download royalties and accounting. My thanks to Elliot Peter for the heads-up for the original piece and to Neil Forker for pointing out my complete lack of knowledge of popular beat combos of the metallic persuasion.
