The only question that I have is; if Robert Fripp is such a phenomenal
guitarist, why does he play second fiddle to a man (Adrian Belew) that
admittedly knows not how to read or write music.

Now don't get me wrong, I do like Robert Fripp. I have seen him perform 
twice, once with KK, and once with the League of Gentlemen. I really
did enjoy that show, even though he got repetive after a time.

But to imply that he is the best is ludicrous.  Try listening to Steve 
Hackett instead.  He is every bit as good as Fripp, but has a much wider 
repertoire.

Until next time....
