OK. You say so.
Cobra handling and cocaine use are a bad mix.

Sounds like a bunch of old guys at a recital
this guy does it right, and definitely better than how fripp does it this days.

Yes. Anthony is the guy in the "failure to fracture" youtube thing earlier in this thread.
As mentioned, he had ongoing video features on his "make weird music" website about his struggles in playing fracture.
I certainly can commiserate.
I was planning on play it with him, had I made it there.

PS Larks 3 never gets much love. It should...
Agreed. ^
Death inspires me like a dog inspires a rabbit
This one ain't bad either (same guitarist, Alex Anthony Faide) :
Took me 3 days to click on this thread. It was worth the wait. WOW! That is beyond words. SO good!
I agree about Larks 3. Great track.
I wasn't aware this song had the awesome guitar intro for years because I was only familiar with the Absent Lovers version, where the intro is indexed as part of the "Entry of the Crims" improv.
Three of a Perfect Pair was the last of their studio albums I bought.
H'mm. I kind of like that Electric Gauchos track ... but it has the same flaw to me that is present in the League of Crafty Guitarists album I only play occasionally: it's cold and sterile, even though it's live performance; something I've never heard in a Crimson live performance.
(And, yes, LTiA #3 is a great track. But, it doesn't quite seem to fit in with the others thematically, as far as I can tell...)
Cobra handling and cocaine use are a bad mix.
I must say, that is one of the best I've seen. Well done, even the Moto Perpetuo part. Maybe a tad too much "effects". I would have appreciated a cleaner sound. But damn the cross-picking is good! Thanks for bringing it to my attention, as I'd not seen that one before.
My only problem with Larks III is the ending. It feels uninspired and overall boring (especially in the rhythm department). I was hoping the new lineup would play the Larks Suite in full and rework the ending to make it much more interesting with the extended lineup.
Please don't ask questions, just use google.
Never let good music get in the way of making a profit.
I'm only here to reglaze my bathtub.
Here you go, same guy, cleaner sound. The slow part is tentative, but the perpetual motion part...

It took this guy 22 years to learn Fracture and he even wrote a 300+ page book (coming out soon) on the entire experience. Cool stuff. I guess we do sometimes take Fripp for granted, don't we?

He's definitely ubiquitous at this point...
Good on him. Very impressive 22 year effort.
What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it brings forth a sound (2112)
I congratulated him in the comments and asked him if Fripp was going to block this...Anthony responded with something along the lines of 'I have a great relationship with Fripp, and he even OK'd the book'.....then less than 12 hours later...poof. Gone. Saw that coming. If Beato can't play a 12-second snippet of Schizoid Man then surely 11 minutes of an entire tune wasn't gonna fly. Its only 22 years, no big deal.
How many years = Public Domain? If Fripp lives long enough to see that, it'll kill him. "This is the big one, Toyah!"
