Robert Fripp

Robert Fripp, the creator of King Crimson, along with his wife Toyah Willcox, has released yet another nostalgic video for their Sunday Lunch series. Take a look at their rendition of the 2003 Fountains Of Wayne classic, "Stacy's Mom," featured below.

When it comes to performing alongside her husband, Toyah expresses her delight: "I really enjoy watching my husband perform. It brings me so much happiness, especially since we often find ourselves on opposite sides of the world. Being able to share the stage together is truly a wonderful experience!"

Regarding Fripp's relationship with Metallica, he mentioned: "I want to connect this song to King Crimson's 'Frame by Frame,' which we discussed not too long ago (this refers to a previous episode of Rob Squad and the Creators). I came across an interview where Kirk Hammett from Metallica expressed his appreciation for the dual guitar work of Adrian (Belew) and Robert on the Discipline album, as well as in 'Frame by Frame.'"

When talking about his inspirations and who he pays attention to, Fripp mentions: "I drew influence from Hendrix, Clapton, Beck, McLaughlin, Page, and Chuck Berry. In my early years, I was also inspired by Scotty Moore, who played for Elvis, and Little Richard. The energy that Little Richard brought to the stage was truly incredible."
