Sept 96 issue of Guitar player has David Torn revealing his secrets for
looping for those of you wishing to go "Beyond Fripp".  I very inspiring
article.

Unfortunately they put the "Space Rock" article on the web instead of
the 
Torn article, so'll you have to visit your library or borrow a friend's
mag.
