I think Bill's dislike of playing "the same thing every night" is a bit overstated. I'm not sure anyone asked him to do so. He certainly doesn't seem to play the same thing every time in the King Crimson live stuff I've seen. Maybe in UK, which is one reason why I can't listen to them.

Bill Bruford, if I were alive to ask you what you thought while playing with Yes or King Crimson, trust me, oh trust me, I would, and still would.

bills conversation on this video makes me want to leave my 'rock' band :(

I met Michiel Borstlap a few times during his period with Bill. A wonderful guy and so good at his art. check out his work with Gino vannelli also about the same time. Thanks for uploading this video, just great.

I wish I could jam with me...

[prickyX]

or Cecil Taylor?

[Hollenhors]

...or Nels Cline? That might be fun too :}

[johnarthurknight]

If only Bruford would jam with Keith Tippett.
