Amazing - it's usually Ric Saunders in the press. Poor guy, spelt correctly by The Sun, of all papers.

Think it should have been in the Grauniad. We have Folk and Rock in the piece ok but not in the right order.  |

No matter how old Fripp gets, he'll always have that "latent psychopath" look about him. Unnerving but also strangely fascinating...

Impossible, Ric's teaching ME to play. MEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEEEEEEEE!!!!!
They didn't mention that it's via Ric's excellent DVD, (I believe Ric met Frank backstage at one of his shows last year when Mr Skinner admitted the shocking truth, which inspired me to get hold of a copy). 'tis flippin' good, and a chortle to boot. The first one I tried featured a po-faced American lady who kept saying "Mmmm-kay?" like Mr Garrison from South Park! I can murder the key of D now, in both directions, look:

Nah, Mr Fripp has an aversion to pickaxe/hoe-type garden tools.....  |

Since when have our beloved Fairport Convention been 'Rock pioneers'? Where's the Folk in that?

I was actually nodding in approval at that, however inadvertent it was. Certainly it's more correct than "folk pioneers" and I don't think there was space to put folk-rock. Fairport were a rock band, who "pioneered" a new direction/genre by adding elements of folk into the mix. |
