Hi folks -- I just wanted to mention a point which I had tried to state in my mega-post from a couple of days ago, which I have probably not sufficiently made clear. That point is that I don't claim to have any special information or insider's account of how Fripp, Torn, or any other loopers (aside from myself) do their thing, and any statements or analyses that I may make should be taken for what they are -- which are combinations of observations I've made either through listening, watching, or reading. Which is to say, my statements about Fripp and Torn's different ways of making music should not be taken as gospel, since I may be (and in some cases actually am) mistaken in my assessment of how these people do their thing. They're just my own conclusions and assumptions (and often opinions), so don't get the impression that my analysis of these procedures are factory-authorized statements from the men themselves. (Heh.) Anyway, I just wanted to make that clear, and see to it that no one runs around taking what I'm saying about either Fripp or Torn as absolute, incontrovertible fact. Now setting the hubris elimination system to maximum intensity, --Andre
