How the **** does he have that much money when nobody cares about King Crimson but music nerds? I'll bet he made it all from that Kanye sample of "20th Century Schizoid Man".

I have not heard either of those. I'll check them out at some point.

Robert Fripp (born 16 May 1946) is an English guitarist, composer and record producer. As a guitarist for the progressive rock band King Crimson, Fripp has been the only member to have played in all of King Crimson's line-ups from their inception in the late 1960s to the present. He has also worked extensively as a studio musician, notably with singer David Bowie on the albums "Heroes", Scary Monsters, and Super Creeps, Brian Eno, David Sylvian and contributed sounds to the Windows Vista operating system. His complete discography lists more than seven hundred releases over four decades.

I'd imagine a lot of that money comes from guesting on songs by musicians who've moved a lot of units.

You really should. I don't even really dig prog, but Larks' Tongues in Aspic, Starless and Bible Black, and Red are the kind of wildly inventive and bizarre albums that prog rock should be about and not ****ty Genesis worship. I don't even know how much I like prog as a genre, but those albums make me believe that it's not just all bull**** noodling.

Makes sense. I guess being a studio musician is a far more lucrative field than I ever guessed. Maybe Devin Townsend is making more money than I figured since he produces so many albums.

I imagine his point was that stifling streaming is not what a musician who wants their music to be heard should do, unless they're just money grubbing whores with no vision of what music distribution has become.

Fripp killed Grooveshark so he too should die.

Single-handedly? I remember Grooveshark. It was one of my main ways to get music when I was still using library computers. I miss it more for nostalgia than actually missing it though.
