Robert Fripp Hopes King Crimson Brings Him Joy At Long Last

08/06/2014
. (Classic Rock) Robert Fripp hopes the latest incarnation of King Crimson will bring joy into his career at last. He says that, despite countless satisfying achievements he's never been entirely happy on the road - although recent rehearsals have made him think that might be about to change.

He reactivated Crimson last year and the latest incarnation features drummers Gavin Harrison, Bill Reiflin and Pat Mastelotto alongside bassist Tony Levin, saxophonist Mel Collins and Jakko Jakszyk on guitar.

Fripp tells Uncut: "My professional life has been so devoid of joy. Satisfaction, yes. Bits of nice happiness on the way, yes. An education, constantly. But a joyful undertaking? No.

"I haven't actually enjoyed touring to date. I hope this tour will provide a new direction in my life of playing music." more on this story
