I'm so happy to be living at the same time as Robert, who future generations will remember with awe.

These videos are priceless. They're not complete without a good bollocks! Thank you, Robert.

I was feeling terribly out of sorts, Robert simply being Robert has helped me find peace.

As much as I love KC, the soundscapes take me somewhere else. There seem to be 2 Roberts! Thank you both..

Those are some socks, Mr. Fripp! Anyone that has followed your antics for any length of time knows that you have a great sense of humor. One of my favorite pieces of evidence for this comes from the "Great Deceiver" box set, where, when addressing the audience, you remarked "We will now proceed to attack culture once again." 😄

That picking exercise played up to tempo is insane... I would kill for that right-hand ability. A lifelong fan, now in even greater awe...

Robert. After listening to you for 50 years (and being a multi-instrumentalist myself) you have now increased both my technical and comedic side of my music with your insights into your life and the ultra fine guitar lessons. Thank you (and Toyah) from the bottom my heart. -- Marc from WorldProg

Perfect lead tone….Inventive playing….awesomeness

the way you do it so effortlessly never ceases to strike my awe.

Always mesmerising to see such a sharply dressed gentleman creating so much tension with his guitar!

Mr. Fripp. Have you ever listened to yourself and realized how mad you really are? Keep it up! I LOVE IT!! Thanks for your work and efforts!

Robert Fripp does social media the right way!!! What an awesome musician... makes me wanna practice guitar!!!!

Robert you`re so funny ! it`s a total pleasure to watch your content , thanks man !

Love that painting hanging there ..

Robert Fripp action figures including guitar accessories with action-jamming feature!

Robert Fripp...the small, independent, mobile and intelligent unit.

What more could one ask for from a post? Mirth, good cheer, dry wit, shameless commerce, exquisite beauty, and tuition - this has it all! Just delightful - thank you.

What a beautiful guitar passage! It takes me back to his mid 70s album with Eno "Evening Star"., Where as myself and other mere mortal guitarist play the guitar for Mr. Fripp the guitar is the input device that gives him access to the lush soundscapes that he's created inside the magic confines of his sampling and effects rig. I have no idea where to even start to try. If l have missed an episode where he explains his equipment or gives a tutorial would be immensely helpful.

Fripp, We want a Crimson studio album!!!

Grazie grande Maestro Robert Fripp per la grande musica che tu e King Crimson avete prodotto per noi ! C.F.

"Exploring among the stars ... " - if ever there was an apt description of Mr. Fripp's guitar playing, this is it. Ooh! and I'm the 100th "like." Cool.

It is a gift to see the inner and outer worlds of a man. Inside, we see Robert not only learn a part, but fully explore every permutation - "retrograde" obviously a well practices approach, that I have not yet employed. Wonderful explorations. Then we see the outside world, with all the equipment, his mastery and supporting people and infrastructure. Excellent.

The purity of the electric sound while demonstrating the figures was wonderful but then the added effect was stupendous. You can have both! In the same way, I think, you can have music to accompany you on a cosmic journey but it would also befit a nice two pounds journey on a bus. It can be both!

Please continue to visit various parts of the universe please. Thank You

6:34 onwards is ridiculous! I've watched people like Yngwie Malmsteen, Steve Vai etc pick like this, but they only have a very small hand movement using mostly the fingers across the strings. How you play each string so precisely like this is simply incredible!

I'm equally impressed with the tie/socks match. Robert was never this fashionable, this could be in your local high street soon! Lady's undergarments' -Fripp Slip Blooper reel- Fripp blip Alcohol-Fripp sip ETC!! Seriously (or not) we love these videos and I think you and Toyah should host a chat show, just featuring musicians and each week a random member of your you tube page? Brilliant as always (you not me!!)

Thank you for sharing your arpeggios , your Art !!! and your art of FUN , with the great , beautiful TOYAH .Have a nice day. I saw you on stage , and follow you since 1972. I've seen all your concerts in France. Thanks for all , thanks for inviting us to your strange musical universe. Kiss your fernandes sustainer guitar for me.

Mr Fripp your particular touch with left an right fingers, is particularly and original. The unique touch of progressive gutar player, her dissonants and assonants scale, chords. When you LISTEN, you already know who they are KING CRIMSON. Good luck Mr Fripp with estimates, from Italy. 👍🇬🇧🎸

Every time I hear an e-bow I think of seeing King Crimson in the early 80's! Absolutely amazing! Peace from Detroit MI.

Love the socks & of course the music! I can’t wait to order my 3 decks of aphorisms. They’ll be a Christmas present to myself 💖

Thanks for this peek into the inner workings of a soundscape. Great melodic sessions too.

Personalised baubles. The ultimate Christmas tree decoration. 🎄

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS MR. FRIPP. You and Brian Eno are my favourite musicians of all time!

Brilliant - like having your own private tutor who just so happens to be a guitar god. Thanks Robert

I have always loved your soundscapes. It's time to pull my old delay out of retirement!

So glad I dropped in Robert that was a joy to watch and with the bonus of actually learning something whilst at the same time remembering back with happiness to the likes of the Virgin Megastore and the quadraphonic dream that me and a pal had and did manage to put into practice once. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing this, dear Mr. Fripp

Sounds very other worldly!! nice!

thanks for sharing this as well as your music. the gear pics are very satisfying to the gear nerd in me, and the playing, well, of course.

Not many people understand that Bob is one of the funniest people in rock music. His humor is beyond progressive! Can’t wait to see the solo tour! One can hope! Cheers!🎸

Felt like an hour, was mesmerizing. Thank you Robert.

Thanks for the exploration.

6:50- Tarkus-ELP. Love it!

Thanks Robert, for the music , your atention and soul .

So fun to get a chance to eaves drop into your world,thanks Robert

I’m all about Bob having fun.

Thank you Mr. Fripp. I will practice.

So glad Mr. Fripp has no problems playing in the light and letting peoples his technique. It wasn't always so.

Thanks for sharing Robert. Take care!

Fripp forever ❤️

Please, PLEASE, make a soundscape album, particularly with this style solo included! It's beautiful!

some beautiful soundscapes.

"BAUBLES" - i LoVe iT & I lOvE tHeM !!!

HI Robert! Love your music ,lots of fun, keep It up!

Thank you so much Robert.

Bien Robert saludos desde 🇦🇷🌊🇦🇷🌊🇦🇷🌊🇦🇷🌊🇦🇷🌊🇦🇷🌊

amazing video Mr.!!

Bollocks, love it! 😂

I recall a deck of Eno's Oblique Strategies at Rather Ripped Records in Berkeley!

Robert please consider doing a concert performing the entire album of "The Cheerful Insanity of Giles, Giles and Fripp" - thank you.

A very fun episode. 🙂🙃😃😎🤓

I Believe It was Mr. eno who once said; When B B King plays he can make you cry, but when Fripp plays the whole universe does. Or something like that. Have a nice weekend máster.

Oh my Robert. I just wrote a piece that almost sounds like this. And it's...................in B-flat! Lovely!

I wish they would make the new King Crimson documentary available for streaming😢heard it’s so good

I love that red guitar so much. It brings out a very different Fripp, I think.

HEY, HELLO Robert From The crazy state of Vermont in the USA Yes I've been enjoying this beautiful practices of putting together our own crazy nutty music 🎵🎶 sessions and putting our little fingers together to make lovely sounds that can only be heard in our own crazy nutty mind's but do enjoy this time with you so much Robert please keep them coming so hopefully We will be together again soon take care stay safe and my the God's keep you safe E.A.D.G.E.

Incredible... Is it new Soundscapes??? Please tell someone

When I was a much younger man I used to love me some Frippertronics. Still a cool sound.

Nice run through of I May Not Have Enough of Me…! I did an NST transcription this summer - looking forward to checking my work. Thanks for another great R@H

Thanks Robert!!!

So much talent and ability. I'm pretty sure he's from a different planet to me though. Crazy guy.

A simple (Thank You) is all that is required everything else has been written below by other fans.

Thanks for the lesson! I hear a West African rythm in there :)

What I would give for an autographed photo with you Mr. Fripp. Oh man, I would cherish that!

✌pot i listen to king crimson alot. Thank you

grande Robert Fripp con le sue melodie uniche che altri chitarristi anche più forse giovani non le faranno mai troppo difficili grandissimo il primo gruppo i king Crimson penso proprio i primi ad sperimentare il progressive con melodie surreali fortissimi 👍👍👍😃😃

my head is totally fripped out, yet again

Amazing right hand facility is Bob’s secret sauce.

6:17 The completely emotionless "Bollocks."

Behold ye baubles of Joy!

You probably don’t need suggestions from the audience on touring opportunities… …BUT, on the off-chance that you’re casting around for ideas someday, I will now note: That dual Revox analog tape-loop soundscape system you toured with in the ‘70s, and which you dubbed Fripoertronics, had such _wonderful_ textures-what with tape warp, and random shifts in reel speed, and the odd pops or snaps or string noises that’d make their way into the soundscape … a real feast of sonic elements particular to the tools both of audio production and of audio reproduction, along with in-the-moment instances of chance!! There was a very John Cage-like element of Zen to it all! So, to those data points add the further facts that people my age are all about the reel-to-reel decks, and the turntables, and the valves, PLUS all the millennial kids are just now also discovering and cherishing all these warm analog artifacts… The point is, as lovely as your current soundscapes are, if you were to ditch all the digital gear and announce you were embarking on an old school Frippertronics tour of City Winery-sized venues around the globe as an intelligent mobile unit, carrying just your Fernandes and two Revox decks and a Hiwatt amp and a Buzzaround clone and maybe an EMS VCS3 through which to further process your guitar’s tone, I think you could reasonably sell out each continental leg of the tour in under a week. So around seven days per continent you chose to tour, although you could maybe sell out the South American leg in far fewer days. Or maybe not SELL OUT sell out, but I’m quite sure you could pack every venue nearly to the rafters. I can’t recall which l.p. of yours had tour dates printed on its jacket’s back, including several stops at pizza parlors, except I would’ve been just 9 at the time and likely not allowed to see the rock album man exhibit his “mobile unit,” but I wager I wouldn’t be alone in my desire to see Frippertronics demonstrated on late-1970s technology! I mean, your dance card is probably full for decades, but it might be a lark to haul out the Revox decks.

a great player , very original ! only one robert fripp !

Subscribed. Wonderful stuff and thank you for the part described at 6:21. The space is reminiscent of my little rainforest shack in the antipodes but your gear is much sexier!

If I could commission Mr. Fripp one day, I'd ask for a suite of lead guitar solos with no background soundscapes or instrumentation at all. Just that plaintive, infinitely-sustained, flute-like voice, singing alone.

Thanks!!!!

Virtuosos

Robert -The soundscapes are one of the deepest most moving thing in sound-please much more soon????w many solos!!!!!!!!-Best-Harris

Professor Baltazar invites us into his world...

I can’t wait to play this on my Stick.😊

✨🎸✨

Pro sessh mr.Fripp thanks !

Beautiful soundscape! Serious question: How do you keep your sustainer from going up into harmonics? Mine seems to do it on almost all occasions. ;-) Luv your socks!

Mmmmm. Shimmer Reverb 🖖

While I have seen many older jazz guitar players play with closed hand at the picking hand, I say I may only do that when playing acoustic and not even then that often. For electric I use open hand, because I want to be able to play hybrid picking at a whim, always, having it immediatel at my disposal, and dampening the strings I am not using, as well as be immediately availble for tapping select notes on the fretboard. On top of that, I do not play electric guitars that have the volume control too far away from my picking hand pinky. I do want to be abe to adjust volume and tone with my pinky on the guitar, and do volume swells. So a strat is more perfect for me. Also to have the pick flat all of the time limits tonal options. I want to slant it to attack certain notes, strings, pinch harmonics, and do whatnot and whatever with my pick to vary the tone of the note.

is he wearing...... JEANS???!!!

Tu non sai quanto ti stimo Robert 😎👍🎸

6:19 once in a blue moon occurance for Fripp, daily for me ngl

Can you go into detail about the guitar processing? what do the foot pedals do? What is it running through for that muff like fuzz, how do you get so much sustain? is they delay/reverbs from the h9000s?

Per chance if your red in e were married again to the Revox multitrack with tape loops and sustain it would take you beyond the stars ... again. some lovely soulful "ad hock" playing here. plus remarkable tips! The red guitar bits are killing me in the best sense.

Fantastic, I've always wanted to have a closer look at the music Spaceship control room, what amazing equipment. I've also wondered why the Roland GR-1 is still used over the GR-33 or GR-55 and I can only guess it's due to the sounds in the GR-1 which may not be present in the modern units. I guess midi hexaphonic pickup wise, the tracking is largely in the pickup itself and hence the controller from the GR-1 onwards is more about layout and personal preference. It would be wonderful to know. I've been following the soundscapes since frippertronic tape looping morphed into soundscapes and really enjoy the 'other dimension/other world' music it makes. Thanks for the latest 'Music For quiet moments' box set and this wonderful live performance. Incidentally, I actually enjoyed the non-distorted playing of the E tuning practice piece, however the heavy distortion gives it a completely different beefy quality that's also enjoyable and well 'ROCKS OUT', so why not? Many thanks for sharing.
