Get ready to be inspired by Dave Matthews as he shares how he was influenced by King Crimson and Robert Fripp during an interview with Howard Stern.
Matthews gushes about the incredibly innovative British prog band, saying, “They just go out of their minds!”
He goes on to explain how Robert Fripp’s unique fingering techniques have influenced his guitar playing, even though he admits Fripp might think he’s a “moron” when it comes to playing. But that unique tuning and finger positioning make a sound that is just so satisfying.
From hits like “Warehouse” to “Satellite,” Matthews reveals how he tried to imitate Fripp’s technique, with mixed results. But his love for King Crimson is evident as he explores their new standard tuning and works to honor their original sound.
On the other side, get a glimpse of Robert Fripp’s world with his entertaining Sunday Lunch covers with his wife Toyah. It’s not just a joke to them – they work hard to honor the original players while embracing the absurdity and hilarity that ensues.
But let’s not forget that Dave Matthews Band fans have something to celebrate as well. With their 10th studio album, Walk Around The Moon, and upcoming tour dates, there’s plenty to look forward to.
