Speaking of other people’s ‘blogs, I’ve been reading Robert Fripp’s online diary off and on for a while.
Fripp is one of the founding members of King Crimson, and has been described as the ‘Mr. Spock of rock,’ which fits.
I got into Crimson about the time ‘Discipline’ was released. I read an interview with Fripp, and it was interesting, so I got the album. It was one of those Big Moments in my musical history.
Anyway. Fripp’s latest entry has to do with how to handle yourself in relation to the fantasies of others. It’s illuminating, but only in reflection and refraction, not by direct light. And that’s as it should be in a ‘blog.

I loved King Crimson in college, it has been years since I even thought about Robert Fripp–how strange to think they are still out there, making brilliant music.
