OFF: Progressive really progressive?

[Guido Vacano]

Dave says--

I only have one Earthworks album, but it was definitely not fusion. Just
very good jazz.

Have you heard ThrakAttak?

BTW, King Crimson fans who aren't subscribed to the Elephant Talk
newsletter might want to check out some of the back issues at the ET web
site. Robert Fripp has posted in several issues recently, and he has some
very interesting things to say about the nature of performance, and the
relationship between the musician and his audience.
