The best John Wetton Precision/Hiwatt sound

"Probably not for Uwe..."

Why? Because of the chord changes? Naw, in prog or jazz rock I don't mind that, possibly because it is done better and with more thought than in grunge. That Fripp track sounds quintessentially quaint and British to me - I like it!

Fripp is both quaint and British.

It only took them 73 years to finally defeat us, and ne'er a shot fired for 67 o' 'em...

Since you didn't like "Red" I thought you don't like this either. "Exposure" is a great album 'cause in addition to great players and singers and Fripp's extraordinary and eclectic songs it has the best version of Peter Gabriel's "Here Comes The Flood".

I didn't say I disliked Red!!!! I don't, it's just demanding to listen to. I have the two Boxed Sets of KC that came out a few years back. And whenever Edith is not around I sometimes listen to them!   With Edith around, it takes about 30 seconds and she asks "what kind of band ist that?", which is never a good start for a conversation with her as it is usually followed by (dis)qualifying statements and her unproven medical theory that "some music can give headaches".

Kind of like when my father would ask my mom at dinner attempting his offhandish best: "Is that a new recipe you tried?" And she would immediately stiffen and say: "Yes, why don't you say outright that you don't like it!"
