From Robert Fripp and David Singletons’ appearance at The MusicFest Café in Bethlehem. Robert Fripp responds to a question about his time playing with The Damned. #kingcrimson #RobertFripp
Fripp and Captain Sensible, very interesting, two great artists in contemporary music and so temperamently different, but I'm not suprissed that they've met for playing. Thank you for this interesting post.
I'm a huge Robert Fripp AND Captain Sensible fan. (WOT?!) I would have loved to be a fly on the wall for those sessions! (And yes, Sensible is a talented guitarist.)
@@MEGAMIGA for real. "The anarchic mood of the song occasioned by Keith Tippett’s freewheeling piano and Greg’s mid-song laughter (caused by Fripp dropping his trousers whilst Lake was singing) made this one of the most unlikely single releases of the year." (NOTE: I keep trying to post this with the link to the source of the quote, David Singleton on the DGM website, but it keeps being deleted?!?)
Most people don't know that John Lydon loved Captain Beefheart too. Where do you think he got the line 'Japan is a dishpan' on the Pistols song 'New York'. A lot of people know that The Damned wanted Syd Barrett to produce their second album but it's been said The Pistols also wanted Syd to produce NMTB. Probably Lydon or McLaren?
Oy, painfully truncated! Captain Sensible begins to get down to work at midnight and the video ends! Hopefully Mr Fripp will write his memoirs in as many volumes as J.G. Bennett's The Dramatic Universe.
