RE: Fripp in LA

Glad to have helped stir this discussion of RF and his work.  His tongue
knows the cheek well--he told us one of their (GuitarCraft?) sayings is,
"Humour is not allowed."
I have to check out more of his seminal looping works--I have not pursued
his career, but I rather liked his work on "Sacred Songs" by Daryl Hall and
of course the early Crimson stuff is wonderful.

His overbearing penchant for didactic pedantry, maybe?

Actually, I also think that much of the time he's
playing up to the persona he's created over the years,
and there's a degree of tongue in his cheek... Maybe.
