I read in one of the UK magazines (Future Music?) that this is exactly
what happened: Fripp was asked to "do his stuff" on a particular
recording, and his response was to send in some tapes with a "Choose
whatever you want" covering note.  This article was part of an interview
with the artist concerned, so it's pretty much a 1st hand account.
