    Who is this guy?

    Saw this passed along by a group in Facebook and had to share to see if anyone knows who's in the photo.

    I actually recognized Chuckles before seeing the filename even though he was standing up.

    When did Fripp yield the one legged schtick to Ian Anderson?

    I highly doubt it's him, given the fashion in vogue back then...

    Yeah, because the more likely explanation is that they found kids that looked like him and his sister and stuck a guitar in his hand.

    Shortly after the photo was taken Master Fripp had the photographer killed.

    According to comments in the Facebook link (from a King Crimson group), that is Patricia.
