I always have the feeling that Fripp is constantly looking for something to get annoyed about with the other musicians and while Adrian Belew is a genius guitar player his natural happiness and thendency to improvise falls at odds to Fripp's taciturn perfectionism. It's not a surprise to me when he was subsequently left out of the present incarnation of the group. What is perhaps more unfathomable is that when his services were disposed of Belew's reaction was to state he thought King Crimson was both he and Fripp's baby. Was he not aware of Robert Fripp's megalomania when it comes to music?

Robert Fripp standing there all innocent...the creator of that wonderful riff back in Berlin all those years ago. Beautiful.

Of the many guns for hire that Bowie has gone through, Ronson, Slick, Fripp, Alomar, Frampton, Gabrels, Stevie Ray Vaughn and of course Belew, It was so familiar yet so new, crisp and fresh with Adrian’s untoward yet perfectly fitting reinterpretation of our favorite licks.

I saw King Crimson on that tour in Copenhagen in the summer of 2000. "Heroes" was a big surprise.

my favourite song ever. So galactic.

I saw the seven piece King Crimson play this in Aylesbury in 2018. Still magnificent but I really would had liked to see this live with Belew as here. Mind you Fripp has always played more or less the same guitar parts on Heroes regardless. He’s such a sublime technician.
