New Sounds | May 24, 2010
On September 17, 1992, renowned electric guitarist Robert Fripp was featured along with a bevy of his closest musical friends including vocalist Patricia Leavitt, The Annex, Firepower, and the California Guitar Trio. Fripp packs in a whirlwind of styles during this lively hour: classical, rock, blues, jazz, as well as the progressive rock aesthetic he first pioneered with King Crimson in the 1970s.
