[grevejp44]

lol what are records :D

[Crimzoid21]

Correction to my post, Adrian isn't the lead guitar, Fripp and Belew shared the position.

[tranthu02]

must say i love watching these interviews. lots of good guests and two great interviewees. what is the song at the beginning?

[rpcurtiss]

@tranthu02 Glad you enjoy the vids. The theme to In The Mode was composed and performed by a friend of ours, Christian Hauter, whom we lost touch with. The theme to Boffomundo is "Mescal" from the Italian band, Arti+ Mestieri, circa 1974.

ROBERT FRIPP IS THE IS THE LEAD GUITARIST, NOT ADRIAN BELEW!

[morvelification]

@Crimzoid21

lead vocalist, and guitarist.

[Crimzoid21]

@morvelification I like Adrian Belew, but I think he stole Fripp's thunder a bit, and to be honest Fripp got the band where it was and is, just my opinion though.

Peace

He really side stepped his obvious distaste for Asia in a very classy way. What a sweet guy.

[seamus1967]

Is Adrian related to Tom Barrasso?

[SandpiperN121PP]

Adrian Belew is simply one of the greatest guitarist of our time. There really is no comparison out there to his style, technique and talent. I personally feel that when he was with King Crimson... it was the best line up they ever had. He puts so much pasion and thought into his music and it shows! Thanks for the nice upload! :)

[worriedaboutlife]

no way dude.. simon demonicmakeit up is the best guitarist ever! he can play underwater, upside down, back to back at 2000 bpm on his back with a snake eating his eye and having lunch off a dragon's back.. man check out video "young guy eat's butter" to see what I mean.. keep on trucking

[mbrownkcmo]

Can't classify King Crimson with Genesis? Sure can, it's called "thinking man's music." It's not like comparing Earl Srcuggs to Cameo...Bill Bruford worked with Genesis...Peter Gabriel worked with Robert Fripp, AND Tony Levin, etc.

adrian belew fucking great guitarist fo ever,,,,,,show me how many are better,,,,,and yah he feels natural,,shame he advertising line 6 amps,,,,,,,,this guy is world class and line 6 is

world shit,,,,,,,,,what a waste of talent

[webbtje]

@maxziz Wait, he advertises expensive, top-of-the-range modelling amps which are ideal for his needs? Blasphemy!

Idiot.

[maxziz]

@webbtje hes doing it for the money ,,,yah sucker,,,,

[webbtje]

@maxziz So what other way is there for him to not have to haul seven tonnes of gear around the world, when he can have it all in one amp?

[lameplanet]

Adrian Belew seems like such an affable guy. It's rare to see someone with so much talent not be arrogant.

[nectarguru]

Totally. My friend's mom randomly met him when he lived in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. She said he was the most humble guy she's ever met, you can totally pick that up from his interviews.

[Crimzoid21]

@lameplanet Robert Fripp was like Adrian Belew in that way.

[GruberKrinkle47]

@lameplanet

really though! the shitty "musicians" of today think they are God and they SUCK

[Crimzoid21]

@GruberKrinkle47 Like JB (Justin Bieber) he sucks, and in interviews all he does is flirt with the female audience or the interviewer and he sounds like shit.
