Yup Sartori in Tangier, St Elmo's Fire,.....I can't make a choice, so much diverse and incredible works!
I will add his work with Bowie, listen to the solo on Scary Monsters and Super Creeps, just fabulous! |
I bought Bowies CD just so I could listen to Fripps guitar work!

His solo in Starless is the superlative two note guitar solo.
But I must say overall his best guitar pieces lie in Fracture and its counterpart FraKctured. The complexities of those pieces is mind boggling and the level of playing to accomplish pieces like that is unlike anything I've ever heard.

I agree with you on Fracture and Starless. They are fantastic as well... The starless 'solo' is actually more than two notes. He sits on a single note to great effect before moving on to the next and then the next... It sounds like two notes because it utilizes two different strings to produce the same note.

Personally, I really like his solo in 'Sailor`s Tale'.
Now that is different!

"St. Elmo's Fire" from Brian Eno's " Another Green World.
Not only his best solo, but one of the most amazing guitar solos ever.
If we're talking strictly KC, the accoustic guitar solo in "Cirkus" is my personal favorite.
Actually, theres a few of them in that song, and they're all very impressive.

Best or favorite Fripp guitar solo. Live recordings donīt count. Iīll go for the excellent solo in "Sartori in Tangier", from the Beat album... What about you?
