  Lovely, simple and exposed July 7, 2009
Written by kevred
As rewardingly beautiful and/or fierce as Fripp’s sounds can be with electric groups, large acoustic ensembles and loads of electronic gear, it’s a special kind of refreshing to hear such stripped-down, unadorned ideas (it even sounds like an unamplified electric guitar in the first snippet), especially coming from such a fertile developmental stage in his career. Thanks to Mr. Fripp for sharing these things that might seem quaint to him but which provide small moments of beauty and reflection for many others!

Who’da thought The Beast could be this soulful? You can see where a completed piece such as this could have ended up in this version’s ouevre. Shame there isn’t more.

I so wish this were longer than a minute. I’ve never heard Fripp play quite like this, and I like it! Has a Stax/Volt flavor but with the fast jazz flourishes characteristic of Fripp’s playing during this time Read more
