let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

LOL- I remember being somewhat taken aback when I first saw that clip of Robert Fripp's domestication...
 
Those comments below the clip window on YouTube imply few got the joke there...

I believe that's actually an old clip from the UK TV religious programme "songs of praise"(Toyah is/was a God-botherer, I believe) ....

...the second clip, not the first

Many thanks Hughes, I've been looking for that film clip for ages

I guess most of the giant of the seventies have turned to a more "family-oriented" mood. Just listen how Jon Anderson speaks about his "wonderful" wife during the concerts... So, Fripp you're not alone.
 
"Oh no love! you're not alone
No matter what or who you've been
No matter when or where you've seen
All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
I've had my share, I'll help you with the pain
You're not alone"
Lyrics & Music by D. Bowie (Rock'n'Roll suicide).

I think we, progheads, always see Fripp as a complete and unsufferable twit , but a serious progressive musician that sort of represent prog's pretentiousness.
 
The man is generally so serious, uptight and unreservedly British, that seeing him in his kitchen, doing dishes and speaking so blandly about marital state of affairs is so shocking to prog fans.
 
That the video maker (the one that did the montage) is screaming out for proggers around the world: a) to seek and destroy such myth-destroying images (at the very least) or b) try to ruin his marriage (at the very worst) is absolutely hilarious
 
It is a very tongue-in-cheek humour. IMHO

Thanks Sean.

I guess it's one for the hard core Frippers. I'll go listen to Islands again.Smile
