Robert’s alternate picking is astounding. The man’s a human metronome. Wonderful music.
Great point. I am forever astounded by Robert's picking. Folks out there..........what he is doing is super difficult.
Fripp is one of the very very few "Progressive rock" artist's still progressing, since 1968.
Couldn't agree more. Since the 80s (or maybe, since the late 70s), most of the great "progressive rock" artists have gone stale from copying themselves, or simply shifted their style for commercial success, which doesn't diminish all the wonderful music they may have done in the past, but it surely is something to think about...
+Manuel Campins Absolutely right, "Yes" was a great band of the 70s, maybe THE greatest of all in the "prog rock" category, but stopped progressing, now content with playing their old hits :)
Discipline Music Exactly. They've become a tribute band of themselves.
Discipline Music Funny thing is, the so called "classic period" of Yes is undoubtedly amongst the best of the best in prog rock.
@@manuel8887 Tribute band of themselves. That captures it perfectly.
Even though I grew up in the 80s, buying In the Court of the Crimson King and Tubular Bells were life-changing moments when I was a teenager.
King Crimson first time i met in midle 70is in Trst(Italy) where i going to buy Picato strings and Lp-s.
Now I'm 60 and Crimson is my favorite band

You know you've made the cut as a musician when you're in the "The Robert Fripp String Quintet".
Rover Dover, to my mind, you are a gazillion percent completely right on... Excellent and wise comment in my opinion, thank you....☆
I'm happy to have played with a musician who played with a musician that played with Fripp. Only 3 degrees separated. I'm only 58 so I have time to improve.
Creo que tengo 2 grados, tuve clases con Horacio sairafi
just come back from a KC's gig.... 3 hours of pure delight and pleasure. Thanks to Mr. Fripp and Co.
I saw them last tuesday ... and now I have depression post King Crimson, BEST CONCERT EVER!
Fripp is a guitar god.
Got to admire the fact that when he solos, there's no sign of "guitar face" I try my best to emulate that characteristic when I solo
Fripp IS a Genius.
Yes, I agree, one of the best musicians of our time. I love his works with Brian Eno.
He is
You DID capitalize "is" FOR no Reason.
No he isn't! !
My favourite guitarist of all time. I know of no other player who is so utterly original. KC introduced me eo his playing way back in '69 with ITCOTCK. I have remained a huge fan ever since. I remain in total awe!
Ha, me too. Saw them in Hyde Park in 69 as a 12-year-old. I remember wondering why he was sitting so still whilst Mel Collins was going crazy playing Schizoid Man as were about 200,000 people in the park that day and assumed that it was because he was playing the moog too but 50 years later there he is, still sitting, still being a genius. One of the best concerts I ever saw and it was free! Great days. Still got the first pressing album too, worth quite a bit apparently but not sure I could ever let go of it.
On the court of the crimson kings: try the larks tounge wit aspeic
I suspect that long after Robert Fripp and the rest of us have passed on there will still be a version of King Crimson or one of its great spin off groups playing somewhere in the world of tomorrow. One of the most brilliant and continually innovative bands ever conceived.
a relaxing piece of art
Pompous, Pretentious and Self-Indulgent Space Meanderings!!!......Kiddin... Always love Fripp and always have some time for him. I still go back and listen to the early albums.
After "meanderings" you caved!
@@Super241946 Ha, I know, right. I definately did!
Master Fripp plays with most anyone, and he and his spouse are thoroughly entertaining each Sundae concert, as well....
Fripp is the master of progressive Rock
There's a melodious touch in his music 🎵🎶🎶🎵🎶🎵
Utterly wonderful music!! I miss all my Robert Fripp records.
3:10 sounds just like the soundscape that Steven Wilson and Robert Fripp used in Bass Communion's "Drugged." LOVE IT!
The frippertronics or "the biological chain of sound". Robert Fripp is the greatest experimental genius in the progressive rock universe.
Thank you for posting this video!!!
breathtaking these soundscapes.
Absolutely, master Fripp. Magical music. King Crimson is King
They really !!! Make their instruments sing !!! Genius , Pure Art ✌
The man is picking the world apart. Brilliant
thanks for music...................sometimes it's better than silence
Robert Fripp is still the King and THE definition of progressive music.
Robert Fripp un meraviglioso visionario
Fripp is the master of minimalism
. Wow! I love all the guitars on synchronicity
@Wadsmitter ... and Philip Glass, don't you think?
i don't think you can call the master of odd time signatures and polyrhythms "the master of minimalism". on the contrary, his works are extremely intricate and sophisticated.
This is incredibly wrong lmao
Yeah, if there was an opposite to minimalism, it would be that.
Master of maximalism maybe :)
Fripp has not only influenced my playing but, truthfully, also how I approach and look at and listen to and process and enter into dialogue with and participate in art and, also, life. That may sound like an overstatement, and I've had many many influences. But I found Fripp when I was 17 and I haven't let go … and he, himself, keeps progressing. I dunno. Maybe I'm feeling sentimental tonight. Or, more accurately, emotional. But we all pay tribute to the music, rightly so. I wanted to add that my whole mindset has been shaped, for the better, by the gentleman. And I'm grateful for it.
I’d cut down on the ‘smoking’ m8.
Beautiful, I can't wait to see you this November in Milan.
What a contribution to humankind!
L’art sublime l’esprit voyage le corps frissonne un pur moment de vie intense.
Such peaceful!
I especially love the music that Mr. Fripp made with Andy Summers.
Indeed
Enjoyed this!
Thank you for this sound
Robert es lo máximo
Grande Fripp 🎸🙄
The abysmal difference between Yes and KC is essentially just one: In Yes no musician of the experience and intellectual size of Robert Fripp, an unclassifiable musician who has opened new horizons to popular music well ahead of his time, has ever been successful.
Ironic that your knocking Yes when it's the band where Bill Bruford first proved himself, and which he kept returning to both as Yes and as Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe: without Yes Bruford wouldn't be the drummer we know him as and thus albums like Discipline, Red, and Thrak wouldn't be the classics we know today. Also considering Robert has worked with everyone from Van Der Graaf Generator to Talking Heads to Hall & Oates to The Grid I doubt he'd take too kindly to the sort of musical elitism you're displaying.
Also I'd like to point out that as of yet Frank Zappa is the only musician to be inducted into both the Rock and Roll and Jazz Halls of Fame, and his classical works are gaining increasing currency. The list of musicians he worked with might be the only place you'll see Tina Turner, Pierre Boulez, Adrian Belew, and Kaigal-ool Khovalyg mentioned in the same place. AFAIK Fripp has never done doo-wop (the entire "Cruisin' with Reuben and The Jets" album,) big-band jazz fusion (Waka/Jawaka and The Grand Wazzoo,) muique concrete (Return of the Son of Monster Magnet,) country (Harder Than Your Husband,) sarcastic disco (Dancin' Fool,) rap metal (Dumb All Over,) or written a proper rock opera (Joe's Garage.) Just throwing that out there.
@@tjenadonn6158 I am with you in your points to the original poster regarding Yes. Don't know why picking on Yes needs to happen here. But from my perspective THANK GOODNESS Robert Fripp has NOT done doo-wop or country or rap (krap) and the like. He has done some non prog collaborations including with his wife but I am thankful that he primarily flies beyond the limitations of those other styles and does his own thing.
@@1ouncebird Frank Zappa didn't deem doo-wop (the entire "Cruisin' With Reuben and The Jets" album,) country ("Montana," "Harder Than Your Husband," "One Shot Deal," etc,) or rap ("Dumb All Over," "I'm The Slime," etc.) to be beneath him. Part of "doing your own thing" is not giving a crap about what is arbitrarily seemed high or low culture and being willing to do whatever it takes to make your vision real regardless of how it might be received. Zappa would go from having Sneaky Pete Kleinow of The Flying Burrito Brothers working with him on one album and French hyperserialist composer Pierre Boulez working with him on the next, he'd quote a piece by Stravinsky in a song called "Titties and Beer," write one piece for Terry Bozio that's considered the hardest thing ever written for a solo percussionist at a standard drumset (The Black Page) and another mocking him for his crush on a particularly effete hair metal guitarist (Punky's Whips.) No limits doesn't mean only seeking the highest highs, but moving beyond the concept of highs and lows.
Meditation music for sure
pure magic
It's alive , it's aliveeeee!!!
Just sublime.
its Amazing!!!
FRIPP king Crimson..king CRIMSON. Fripp..a journey throu the all ages.
Astrattismo, flusso ininterrotto di sonorità che destano stupore, immerse in un magma di meditazioni multiple : lo zen della musica, non lontano dalle sperimentazioni di un altro maestro: Brian Eno
YOu can tell in the first 2 seconds it's Professor Fripp :-) God Love ya Bob ;-)
Fripp Looks like a James Bond villain
those gentle sound of claps are in equals terms with the melody played
Firescape makes me think the Heavenly Music Corporation went through a merger. Awesome.
In honor of "Evening Star" (title cut) I wrote a poem by that name. A publishing company put it in a book of poems. I also got a neat little plaque with the poem on it. I still have it. Can't believe it still survived since 1979 ;-) My friend, John, said we should write a song around the lyrics. We never finished it. Maybe I will now that I remembered it. lol
Insuperabili...mitici
High class.
Reminds me of floating through the deepest abyss of the ocean or outer space.
the ocean of outer space
This is amazing, I miss all my Robert Fripp solo records that are all in storage, why have they not yet been digitized???
have you digitized them?
Yes he is I was earlier trying to track down some Phillip Glass that I haven’t heard in ages.
I miss all my old vinyl records with this music on them.
Is there anything else you miss?
excellent
Looking forward to going to Verona next Summer. Fripp is the n. 1.
gee, I remember a band that used to achieve this multi-guitar beauty on a regular basis. Hackett/Phillips, Banks and Rutherford on 3 guitars playing the most beautiful compound/counterpoint chords with Gabriel on flute or oboe. I'll always love Genesis for the feminine side of their music.
genesis was never real
FRIPP=CREATIVE HURRICANE GOD At 15 I smoked my first joint in 1969 listening to the first Crimson record. It's me & Roberts 50th anniversary!! 50 years of both and i still can't get enough. I'm goin to see em in Chicago AGAIN in October.
Wow!
Flipp, what to say about him? Fantastic!
This sounds like Vangelis. Its like its straight out of bladerunner. I like it.
The 11:11 thing is insane
Welcome to the court of the Crimson King
sounds like a heavenly "music corporation" (or was it cooperation - with Eno) to me : - )
Yes, I am quite sure it's a part of it. I just had a look on the record, but there's no subtitle. Does anyone knows about it ? Anyway, it was quite a surprise to hear this transcendant piece live. I would have not thought it possible !
And yes, it's a cooperation with Eno. The other title (one LP side each one !) was called "Swastiska girls" and both are among the finest works of Eno and Fripp. With their other record "Evening star".
It also sounds like "Let yhe Power Fall: An album of Frippertronics".
I believe that we could call this minimalism, that works.
Yes, the more rhythmic stuff reminds me of Philip Glass' "Electric Counterpoint".
Can anybody name a contemporary band that comes close to King Crimson or Mahavishnu Orchestra?
Plese upload entire dvd
Innovative “one of a kinds”=
Robert Fripp
Jeff Beck (RIP)
R F en su cadencia sonido disciplina es neurótico el es un auténtico maestro de la guitarra creativo imparable un auténtico progresivo imparable ,creo que si no fuera el genio musical que es con la facha hubiera sido profesor universitario de dinámica de fluidos o filosofía
The other guys look like they're sufferering to play the music. It's worth it to play with a master like Fripp.
Hit like before it even started. Just think what it sound like. Loud.
Гениально
Eno's appriciation.
Very difficult to come up with words to describe this. I think maybe "steroidal ambiance" or "ambience on steroids"Whatever it's called, I LOVE it!
21st century scitzoid men
Anybody knows the kind of setup Mr. Fripp might be using to make his guitar sound this way? I am beyond fascinated and would like to try to achieve similar sound..
Yes look up Frippertronics on You Tube and you'll find some good examples...
There's a Premier Guitar rig rundown with Fripp's tech. It's a full on digital setup, no guitar amps, just rack FX and pedals to set and manipulate. Very interesting
Anybody know the name of that phenomenal sounding board looking instrument that kids playing with the 20 or so strings on it? No plucking, just finger taps with long sustain.
It's called the chapman stick.
allien music from jupiter brilliant
Does anyone have any idea how Fripp got that beautiful tone on Moving Force?
Thys Ballard sounds like he's using some sort of acoustic simulator
I mean I'm pretty sure that the other guitarists are playing the same thing as he but his tone sounds like a chorus pedal or something, but I'm not sure
It's a synthetized sound, he uses a guitar with a hexaphonic pickup and a roland guitar synth unit (ie. roland gk3 + roland gr55) which lets you fully customize the sound (you can apply different effects to each string for example), and blend it with the original guitar tone or not (not sure if he's using the original guitar tone here, i think he's not)
Robert Fripp is the only 'music outfit' never releasing a crappy album.
Every other artist except the Beatles has released something garbage, OOh Mister Fripp!
This is what a Gustav Klimt would sound like.

where can i download firescape ?
is that the givson 57 i cant tell?
I meant this type of music....
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷💚 🎼 Happy Beethoven's Birthday Week..._ 💚💚💚💙..._ Viajante..._ Deeply Sound Time Traveler..._Som Profundamente Viajante no Tempo..._ está indo ..._ 🎼..._
Those 3 Crafties came up in the North Korea of music.
"A few goodies there..."
What is this from?
Fripp makes pat metheny jealous.
Never. They are too different. And great artists do not feel jealous only mutual awe
мало того что он всегда сидит, так у него ещё и машинка тремоло в лес поле!!)
дядюшке фрипу законы давно неписаны
Wake me up when the song is over.
Got milk ?
Music for insomniacs, and no I don't mean that in a negative way,
Space whales are going what the hell was that?
I clicked on to this piece, with a hope that the music might be in some way Art-full , Entertaining, and possibly educational. I did not watch the screen as I did not wish to be distracted from the music, and I listened intently to each successive layer of sound until finally I was praying for a power cut, or some way to bring the whole harmonic nightmare to it's end. If ever there was an act of vanity where no talent exists to support it, this must be the perfect example. I imagine that the musicians and the gullible audience must be on some sort of acid trip, or should that be an ACID FRIPP ?
Wow! It is perfectly okay if you don't like this music. But when you said "no talent exists" and implied that the audience is gullible you went too far. That is some wild and high level of talent on this video. You just don't recognize it. That's all. You like other stuff. Cool.
total new age kitsch.
exactly
Horrible im going to you tube to watch playful kittens before i slit my wrist!!!!!🤮
pure magic
