Not really. When most of us only knew Fripp as a member of King Crimson
and before becoming aware of his "looping" music (which by my previous
thought process is just echo music), many of us in the world of
(academic) electronic music and avant-garde music (very small
communities) were already doing that sort of thing. Fripp and Eno were
merely the first pop/rock/whatever musicians to release this stuff on
records to a much larger audience. (Yes, I know that I'm a blasphemer!)
