KING CRIMSON
Frame By Frame (The Essential King Crimson)
1991 U.S. 4xCD Box SetThe last of the really cool CD acquisitions from yesterday, and it was so reasonably priced, I couldn’t leave without it.
A pretty comprehensive oral history of King Crimson; 3 discs of compiled album tracks from every period, with a 4th disc of live recordings the same.
The book is SUPER COOL, but for me, it takes a backseat to the awesome (and complete) King Crimson family tree, drawn by Hideyo Itoh.
That alone is a cool art piece and suitable for framing.I love EVERY era and EVERY iteration and lineup of King Crimson, but this morning, I’m starting with the ‘81-84 Disc #3 (the “Discipline” era), a run only touched by the original ‘69-71 run.
Fripp, Belew, Levin & Bruford are magic together.#vinyl #vinylrecords #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #vinylcollection #vinylfinds #rare #art #cds #kingcrimson #prog #artrock #progressive #robertfripp

This CD is free with this month’s Uncut magazine and it is an excellent best of/introduction to Robert Fripp. Can’t recommend it enough. If you are unfamiliar with him or his non-King Crimson stuff, spin this and see what tickles your fancy. Frippertronics? The Exposure stuff?The ProjeKcts? #robertfripp #kingcrimson

New #review today: "Anyone who’s been paying attention to the world of #ProgressiveRock in the last few years is likely to be aware that #AnthonyGarone is a guitarist with a great amount of technical skill and determination, as well as the ability to talk about music in a way that is both knowledgeable and personable. With OK, But Why? he shows what he’s capable of beyond learning #RobertFripp’s most difficult parts." #ExposeOnline #MathRock #AvantProg #MorganÅgren #MichaelManring #SteveBall #PaulHanson #AndyWest http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/anthony-garone-ok-but-why-2.html

🇬🇧 Robert Fripp "Network" – 1985
The music reflects Fripp's ongoing interest in technology, looping techniques, and the intersection of human performance and machine precision. His distinctive approach creates a sound that is cerebral yet immersive, balancing complexity with atmosphere...
Love this version of "Here Comes the Flood".

FRIPP & ENO
Evening Star
1980 Canada pressingA favorite for go-to early evening vibeage.
Two masters collaborating for the second time; most effectively on the beautiful title track, and the near 29 minute headfuck that is “An Index Of Metals”, which takes up the entirety of Side 2, which simmers and drones, becomes more distorted, disturbing and disfigured as it unfolds.
Truly one of the fifteen or so best #ambient #minimal albums of all time.
Long. Live. Frippertronics.

ROBERT FRIPP
Exposure
1979 U.S. pressingOh man, do I ever love this record.
It’s been a while since I’ve played it start to finish.Fripp’s very first solo album, it sticks out a bit for its focus on rock song structures, though his signature “Frippertronics” are still very much present.
This has a murderer’s row of talented guests on it; Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins, Daryl Hall, Peter Hammill, Brian Eno, and Tony Levin to name just a few.
When Fripp moved to NYC in ‘77 a few years after the OG King Crimson busted up, Fripp became part of the city’s blossoming #punk and #newwave scene, and you can hear a lot of brush strokes of that in some of these songs.
It’s such a satisfying and artful album on every level.
