Three of a Perfect Pair (acoustic) - Adrian Belew solo

[Malfango]

Thank you for posting this! One of my favourite KC songs, and it was great to hear it sung this way. What a musician, and what a wonderful voice.

[Stretchmeister]

Fucking awesome!

[MegaMegalomaniac]

that was fucking amazing!



[grevejp44]

King Crimson fans are talented enough to clap in 7/8 but forget that you don't repeat hopelessness in the melody of the song..

[123clov]

oooooh what a perfect song...

[Fr3derick]

Excellent

Grandma Mary

[Marco33185]

je me demande pourquoi des musiciens comme Steve Howe et Adrian Belew (mais d'autres aussi) ne se retrouvent pas de temps en temps pour des concerts ...

surement des histoires de droits ou de managers ... dommage !

[fancyabomb]

One of the best things I have ever seen and heard... without doubt.

[guitarmachine13]

what's that guitar?

[fakeplayer]

the crowd is clapping at 7/8 ths!! i bet u can't find a non musician there!

[Jimandthegringos]

Tears in my eyes for his awesomeness!!! Grandissimo ADRIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[socalweddingdj]

Now That was AWESOME!!!!



[haimcito]

genius!!!!!!!

[fid3ld3ly]

adrian belew rocks!

[zabman23]

This is some of the reasons why he played for Zappa

[johnjtheoriginal]

@zabman23 and with fripp...

[Psyhister]

Adrian is awesome. Seriously, such voice and cool skill in guitar. I can't just play it, and he can play and sing at the same time!

I like this version much more than album one.

[lamecasuelas2]

he already said it,oh!! what a perfect mess!!!

[RLSCS]

The magical voice that resonates through my body. Such beauty, such talent.

[DanSemotan]

Nice video! Thanks for the upload ;) Never heard this played acoustic, interesting to see Belew play just acoustic

[VulturesAwait]

wow..now that is an educated crowd..epic

[ndongousman]

cool to have clapping on 7/8 !

;-)

[underagedpickle]

@ndongousman at first i was like holy shit then i came

[ndongousman]

2 peoples are deaf !

[t0v3]

This song rocks

[devolve42]

Meanwhile, your kids are turning themselves inside-out over Justin Bieber,

[54HarryB]

Awesome!!

harry

[crimsninnocence123]

how is this not played on the radio over lady gaga and modern pishh.......:S

[jaegerhund]

if that doesn't make you smile ............

[amccann7]

@jaegerhund I'm smiling....

[steffiphillips]

i...am....in awe....

[thelahun29]

this is awesome..whatever happened to rob fetters???

[WhatWeAllLove]

@theawakener7 Bucket head is a pathetic excuse for a musician

[dannyhood66]

@WhatWeAllLove Say that to adrian belew or any pure musician? Listen to the "homing beacon, 'hills to eternity''or ''sketches of spain'? Simple songs yet no one sounds like him in guitar today..And that is a drop in the bucket compared to all the styles and albums he puts out constantly..Many great guitarist out there with feeling and emotion i have listened to.. Hendrix, uli roth, frank marino are favorites of mine but buckethead is right next to Hendrix man ,He hits the core of the human sole

[pacosuave64]

beautifully done

[d2843]

you know you have a good audience when they can clap in 7/8.

[Corkskrew999]

that was 7/8? I thought it was just kind musick!

[d2843]

perfect.

[dirtshaman]

I listen to this song while time traveling. Don't leave your time period without it!

[bubbygorgeric]

BEST VIDEO ON YOUTUBE NOW AND EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Febrasmaster]

Muito bom...Very nice...The masters

[bercik1964]

Anybody to transcript Adrian's joke at the beginning? Haven't got that :?(

[orlandomarquez00]

Que poder!!

[Glittertwixy]

His music, his voice, his everything touches my soul so much it makes me tear up inside! SO BEAUTIFUL!

[valentinpaul]

Godlike!

[145inA]

What a guy!

[MrSaxguy3]

beautifully compelling

[FriendsOfNone]

amazing!!! i wish there was a tab for this!

[unknownkingdom]

@FriendsOfNone there is a tab for it

[WizWheelzTerraTrike]

Love the crowd response singing

[thudmother]

Playing like that and having such perfect intonation in his voice. Awesome.

[tessteekle]

Wow, not only do his fans have rhythm, they can clap in odd time signatures. That's sayin' something!

[BenignInsanity]

This really is incredible, such musicianship.

His guitar playing really is impressive, from another guitarists point of view; every note is so articulate, so pure; his voice and singing spot on; the fact that he actually looks like he is enjoying his song.

King Crimson: no other band holds such authority of the mystique, the curiosity, the experience.

[Lightmane321]

WOW! That was AWESOME!

[johnmckinlay67]

 Wonderful version ! Thanks Olivier .

[SKAman635]

So fucking good

[saucexp]

Buen temazo !!!

[DecimaAurora]

Great Song...No Words *_*

[DaveGuerreroTijuana]

no mames!!!

[standardbearer]

great song, great performance.

this should be part of the so called "great american songbook", even if it's british.

I'd just really like to hear/sing this around bonfires

[mrblackbrown]

@standardbearer this really isn't British, though I don't think you, Fripp, or Billy B would have a problem with that statement.

[Pyrofries]

I learned this riff, it's incredibly fucking hard. What an amazing musician to be able to pull it off so easily, and sing!

[assietoassie1]

For me this is one of the best musicians ever, Adrian Belew.

The best match for me is Lucien G. and his Gibson.

[SimGenClem]

J'aimerais tant jouer de la guitare comme Adrian Belew

[gogitosbanditos]

adore him. such a great great song.

[stevepaselli]

Adrian... I saw them in Legnano, Italy. He played it as the last encore. A great composer, a great performer, a great guy: a great musician, not a rockstar. Almost makes me want to cry.

[mrblackbrown]

@stevepaselli I've had the most tremendous luck with meeting him at shows in Chicago. One time he did a double take when he saw me yet again. Perfect timing - a few minutes late while Fripp is doin his soundscape, just in time to be in an empty pathway when the band came out. The night before I chatted with him outside the same place. Plus, there's other stories. A friend's dad hit it up with him at Chicagofest in like 79/80. He was there solo.

[AnnaScettral]

i love this man

[RoiPaixDub]

Genial

[croon4u]

bloody brilliant! If I could do 8 stars, there'd be at least 2 for the audience...no, really, it was a 50/50 thang JUST the way "live " music should be shared!! WOW

[CRIZ0000]

this is amazing

[Asymmatrix]

Cyclothymic

[HeadMinerve]

Wow, what a perf... amazing.

[JustAintthatWay]

he - belew - is so frickin' talented it's actually

a.disconcerting

2. troubling

3. beautiful

3.

[PermanentWave62]

Ive listened to this song 100 times in the past week. Saddest thing is the first comment on the list has been the same the whole time. For not being internet popular, i'd vote them near the top of all rock bands!

[satinhooks]

it's so great when you find a 4 minute song that only feels like it was on for 30 seconds!

[bucey70]

How brilliant he is ! So much happiness on his face when playin' and singin ' all this great songs !

[alanboro]

Oh my fucking GOD

[iLnataleEsacroXtutti]

that's why robert fripp loves him

[ExperimentalHaven]

Robert and Adrian are just the salt and pepper of musical perfection.

[LucaPette]

@iLnataleEsacroXtutti Yes, and that's why i love him too :)

[grevejp44]

@iLnataleEsacroXtutti fripp has emotions :D

[Sansmesonge]

Adrian Belew: you're the best. Great crowd aswell.

[ZAUTASHVILI]
