Interview: David Singleton

Robert Fripp is a guitarist best known as the driving force behind the mighty progressive rock band King Crimson. He has also collaborated with David Bowie (think of the heavenly sustained guitar in the song "Heroes"), Peter Gabriel, Daryl Hall, Andy Summers, and many others. And starting with his early recordings with Brian Eno, he also pioneered the tape looping system Frippertronics, creating ethereal soundscapes and ambient pieces. Fripp greatly expanded his audience during the pandemic in a series of quirky videos with his wife Toyah. David Singleton is Fripp's "reluctant manager". Well, of course, David Singleton is much more than this. He is also a producer for the music of King Crimson and for the recent acclaimed documentary "In the Court of the Crimson King", an audio engineer, author of The Vicar Chronicles about the music business, co-founder of the Discipline Global Mobile music label, and a musician himself. This interview was for a preview article for noozhawk.com for Fripp and Singleton's talk "An Evening With Englishmen Abroad" at the New Vic Theatre in Santa Barbara on 3/1/24. It was done by phone on 2/14/24.
