II transcription, but until then: has anyone transcribed Fripp's twisted guitar break in Pt I & the break that starts off Pt. III? They sound similar (use the same scalar material). Thanks, wayne [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][] From: wcsanil at ccs dot carleton dot ca (Anil Prasad) Subject: Bob The Fripper Update Date: Tue, 12 Jan 93 3:04:21 EST This may all be old news, but here goes anyway: Bob The Fripper plays on the debut album by The Grid (those of you buying the new Eno CD5s know their work). He's the featured guitarist on three tracks. The Grid are a British techno/remix/industrial type band. I prefer to lump them under the "shitbox" category, however, your perceptions may be different. Apparently The Grid and The Fripp got along so well that they're planning on doing an entire (yecch) album together. Interestingly enough, The Fripp wants to do more upbeat dancey stuff while The Grid want to do more ambient stuff. Apparently, Griddles and Fripps see some mutual cross-pollination potential here. BTW, I think The Grid's album is titled "Electric Head" on Virgin Records UK. In other news, The Fripp has worked with an as yet-unknown music equipment manufacturer to create the.. erm.. "Fripp In A Box". Yes, no kidding, that's what it's called. Basically, every Frippian effect you've ever wanted. Apparently this is >from a UK manufacturer. If you have any details about "Fripp In A Box" (puns that bad should be punishable by death through extremely cruel and unusual punishment IMHO), please post info! BTW, anyone see some dangerous trends happening here? The Orb working with Mike Oldfield, 808 State hanging around with Yes, Opus III bobbing about with the Crimheads and Jon Anderson doing a rap version of "Close To The Edge" ("Close 2 The Hype")? Clearly the progressive door is ajar here... someone slam it shut before these technogeeks really get through and infiltrate this hallowed ground... wow, that was a profound thought... :-) Of course, all of this is in IMHO, so relax if you actually buy this crap. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anil Prasad | "If Princess Diana ran the world -- which ----------------------------| she has the power to do -- child abuse wcsanil at alfred dot carleton dot ca | wouldn't exist anymore." wcsanil at ccs dot carleton dot ca | -- Sinead O'Connor ------------------------------------------------------------------------- [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][] From: cs163wel at sdcc8 dot UCSD dot EDU (Paolo Valladolid) Subject: Robert Fripp and His String Quintet Date: Wed, 13 Jan 93 8:57:50 PST According to the San Diego Union-Tribune Concert feature, the "ex-leader of King Crimson will make his San Diego debut at the Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach, CA on May 27". The concert wil be by Robert Fripp and His String Quintet. I wonder if this a quintet of guitarists or an actual quintet of violin, viola, cello, etc. Paolo [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][] Date: Wed, 13 Jan 93 20:21:42 GMT From: Toby Howard Subject: TAB: Lark's Tongues in Aspic, Part III (excerpt) Here's the quiet guitar duet section from the middle of Lark's Tongues in Apsic Part III, from King Crimson's 'Three of a Perfect Pair.'
