![]() ![]() The eventual Crimson core of Wetton, Fripp, and Bill Bruford is often considered the “classic” line-up, releasing three studio albums (“Larks’ Tongues in Aspic,” “Starless and Bible Black,” and “Red”) that truly stretched the band to its imaginative limits. Frustrated, John began to listen a bit closer to the sales pitch of an old friend, Robert Fripp, who set about to reform King Crimson in 1972. John’s early work with a variety of bands allowed him to show off his impressive bass talents, but did little to showcase his equally impressive singing and songwriting skills. He also discovered a knack for songwriting with an early bandmate, Richard Palmer-James a relationship that would continue to flourish through five decades. This is still a major feature of his music today.In his teens, John focused those melodies on the bass guitar and honed his skills by playing and singing with local bands. He often played the bass parts to help his brother rehearse tunes for services.an experience that led to John’s love of the relationship between top line and bass melodies.
