I'd like to see a section about his innovations, with sub-sections for 1) frippertronics, 2) the crafty guitarists, 3) special tunings. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.112.17.38 (talk • contribs)

Eddie Jobson describes that Fripp dropped out before they recorded and that he was a prime-mover in their formation - a "King Crimson" under a different name. This is not listed in the article. Didn't Eric Tamm cover this episode, and Fripp himself in one of his diaries? 2603:6080:21F0:6870:1456:B8C3:B8CD:C30E (talk) 17:52, 5 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
