I saw this on the Midnight Special or something like that years ago. It just sprang into my head tonight, and there it was.

Follow the other links, especially the one that says Robert Fripp Guitar Solo ... just jaw dropping

That was amazingly fantastic!! I wish that I head heard of this guitar genius back when he was doing this work. Another wonder thing that I missed hearing about until decades later.

The couple of Frippertronic records are still available I think ... I need to get them

You'll hear more than a little bit of Frippertronics in my playing, when I'm using electronics. It was a HUGE influence on me and remains so.

This is from the period of 'Let The Power Fall/Under Heavy Manners'.
Bob Has always been one of my big influences. Mid-period King Crimson (Larks Tongues, Starless and Bible Black, and Red) was the music of my adolescence.
He originally developed the two tape machine delay thing with Brian Eno where (I think) it is used on 'Another Green World'.
The antithesis of the guitar hero, and one of the best guitarists of all time.

The latter two KC albums you mention are particular favorites of mine (especially Red). I do need to get the two Fripp/Eno records on CD. My vinyl is beat.
