You can catch Robert Fripp's contribution to BBC4's The Joy Of The Riff via the BBC iPlayer.
Robert's segment of the show pops up at around 22 minutes.
"The riff was only one part of what King Crimson did. Their was a lot more going on...I don't think in terms of a riff. I might think in terms of a phrase or a motif"
John Doran of The Quietus offered this assessment of his work. "Robert Fripp is undoubtedly a genius. His earlier work with King Crimson, it's so technically proficient, it's so hard to get a handle on what he's doing"
The show is available to UK viewers for another six days via the iPlayer
