Always a pleasure watching the back and forth.

[@R.M.MacFru]

Thank you both for another lovely video. This, the Sunday brunch, and Robert's Music for Quiet Moments, help dissipate the stress of the week. 💖

[@thepiperofsimms9974]

Magic Fingers riff. So nice !!! Thank you T&R

[@kathowed]

I hope, with all my heart, that you are able to find a way to continue sharing this joy (and that of the Sunday Lunch) once we all begin to emerge, bleary-eyed and befuddled, from this bonkersness.

[@CornishMotorcycleDiaries]

Ummmmm 8 and a half minutes of entertaining trivia followed by 30seconds of existential magic. Brilliant.

[@wendydriver3470]

🦄❤🦄Thanks Toyah And Robert More Fascinating Chat 🎶🎸

[@garycarr2530]

Robert and Toyah I feel your Saturday videos are a tantalising first course prior to the main course on Sunday Lunch and l Love them both thank you

[@jameslawson1793]

hi two the legends toyah and Robert and keep up the good work ❤💙👍👌✌

[@xpti24]

Brilliant!!! Be well, all the best.

[@mikeriesco6174]

Would love to know which are the "2 songs that have sustained me", that Robert referred to...?

[@tomgucwa7319]

Back in the day ! ... confusion will be my epatath. And. Court of the crimson king...most popular in say 1977 . Some f.m. air play , prolly made him the most money , he may well mean something else.

[@postie64]

A cascading pentatonic chord! Very nice tuning as well. I always enjoy the Agony Aunts as well as Sunday lunch.

[@BeatlesBowieKrimson]

Just fantastic.

[@neilquarrell7551]

Love you both, you make everything groove !!!!!!

[@thekitowl]

Great stuff 👍

[@Claudestar1]

What a wonderful couple. Ciao from Italy. ;)

[@oscarcosulich]

Wonderful! But don't forget the Kinks, the "pop" group with the best lyrics of that era

[@corywofford9976]

We caught that look, Toyah, at 1:45 when Robert said "Strap on..." Get yer hed outta tha gutta, deary. :D

[@MrMaca1234]

Love watching your videos just watching you toyah on tv now on catchphrase

[@cymbalspecialist]

LOVE!

[@dashriprok5852]

Thanks

[@fnord23]

all the best to you Toyasarus and the Frippcox! :)

[@philipcockburn2573]

The two of you should do a tour love love love these vids.

[@epiphonium]

[@mightyV444]

"Solar Plexus"! :-)) And I love that list of favourite Pop bands :-)

[@lucasdomanico5612]

Interesting books, thx!

[@gordonmacintosh5245]

Toyrah is so lucky with those magic fingers🤗

[@patricialeavitt5363]

💓 Brilliant Day

[@theotherwalt]

My question for the next episode: Has Robert ever been to Fripp Island in South Carolina, USA?

[@BeesWaxMinder]

wfd57fatman a WHOLE island’s worth, it seems!

[@loddude5706]

Although as sartorially elegant as Whicker Island, the music's better & it sports a lot less Alan Whickers . . .

[@stevehotspur]

Brilliant

[@richieangel1526]

Hello Toyah and Robert, if you could have one historical person each as a dinner guest, who would it be and what would you ask them. Sorry guys bit of a tough one. Love and respect. Richie Angel. Keep safe 💙

[@shedjammer87]

When I get asked who my favorite band or musician is, I reply ' I haven't hear it yet." or "Whatever sounds good at any particular moment."

[@christiantoma5917]

yeah i was in this one!

[@baronepam]

sound and color YES. Maybe the way sound was delivered on 12" vinyl disks packaged in a cover, which became a canvas & led to hours of relaxed focus on just the music, just the cover art, is a happy meditation.

[@darringodden7225]

The lovely ladies rye(?) smile when Robert said strap on his instrument has inspired me to write a song for my wife.

[@jameslawson1793]

yes sweet ones ☺❤💙👍👍

[@frankremus9873]

That one's wife could think that one could play sinister roles outstandingly well is a sign of a healthy marriage.

[@randysnell9218]

I'd like to see Robert collaborate with Robin Trower on a song or two.

[@RecliningFurniture]

I believe that Robert was a fan of Trower back in the day (by which I mean about 40 years ago, or longer), so it doesn't seem out of the question.

[@silascochran9705]

I'm seeing Zero dislikes how wonderful

[@latehare111]

Well done Toyah for raising all that money for your charity on Catchphrase!

[@Biffer5]

The Beatles and Blondie!! I love it. Who would have guessed.

[@stevedaly8521]

Ha ha, Robert would make an excellent John Christie 🥰

[@loddude5706]

But has he got the legs to do Linford?

[@NSHM122]

Willipp and Fripcox.....Oh I GET it!! haha!

[@ianstubbs1175]

Toyah got it right, 'Brilliant Day' is on 'Ophelia's Shadow'

[@hoppinonabronzeleg9477]

Mark Riley on Six Music really wants Robert to do a Manic Q & A! I think you should both do one for his evening show 7-9 Mon Thurs. He says he once met you Robert on the stage at Hammersmith Odeon!

[@robh9079]

Great 'song' - audience reaction - stravinsky - rite of spring

[@arthurblundell6128]

who makes your sunday schnennegans ? "my wife...." -- shock horror surprise !!

[@ianmcsherry5254]

I would love to see Toyah singing "Sleepless". I think that would work quite well. :)

[@suesmith9665]

Grey 😂 I order a yellow guitar, coming to learn to play or displayed decoration. Love you ♥

[@sue4531]

Couple goals 🥰😘

[@bJTsqd283]

Would Robert like to play along with Ozric Tentacles at some point ?

[@marymary7124]

Getting better we are more

[@sidattoya2905]

#DodgingEnergyVampires....good one!

[@thepaulmacfarlane]

Less is more. And when robert looks then looks some more all has been said. .

[@Rich6Brew]

10 Rillington Place!

[@williambaymont403]

Time to muscle up there Frip. It's good for ya.

[@rollacoastaride1937]

Bob ! question, why choose Kahler over Floyd Rose ? and, does Toyah understand this question, can she play guitar with a bit of whammy ?

[@paulnolan4971]

LOL Rillington place John Christie

[@RecliningFurniture]

You do realise that you are starting to give well thought out and inspiring answers to these questions - almost as though you were actually qualified to answer them?

[@BeesWaxMinder]

WOW! his Fretting hand hardly moved when he played that -that is quite a tuning maybe I should investigate… (Did he say that every string was tuned so it plays pentatonic in C?)

[@ianstubbs1175]

C G D A E G

[@garycitro1674]

I had to look up "flibbertigibbet!" "A frivolous, excessively talkative person" (as related to Mozart.) I know plenty! (One is the "leader" of my country.)

[@andygilbert1877]

Gary Citro I’d say that’s far too fine a word to be wasted on such people!

[@loddude5706]

@@andygilbert1877 Oh, I don't know - it's certainly 'tinny' enough & does buff up pretty well when forced : )

[@shawnmcvey7789]

Robert is supposedly a huge Hall & Oates fan, he saw them live in the 70s and ended up making Darryl Hall's wonderful first solo album, Sacred Songs. I want to know if Robert still has his old Les Paul's and those magnificently monolithic Hiwatts from the 70s.

[@CornishMotorcycleDiaries]

Daryl Hall sang on Robert's first solo album, which is about to be re-issued, so I think the feeling is mutual.

[@shawnmcvey7789]

@@CornishMotorcycleDiaries Darryl was supposed to sing every song, but the record companies made it too difficult. Fripp has even gone on to say that he was the best singer he ever worked with. Supposedly he was only supposed to play guitar on Sacred Songs but Darryl fired the producer pretty quickly in favor of Fripp, which led to an awesome collaboration. Unfortunately the record companies delayed Sacred Songs and never promoted it because it wasn't "radio friendly enough".

[@silascochran9705]

👍🦅🇺🇸🎼

[@TheMister123]

That "fairy fingers" sequence sounds like a fairly basic Guitar Craft sequence - I'm pretty sure the CGT guys have used it on a few occasions. :-)

[@AD-zw6nn]

Can someone please write the name of that JT Bennett book that Fripp mentioned??

[@DarkeningSkies1]

John G. Bennett (J.G.), actually. Fripp mentions that it was a transcript of a speech, so it may not be available. However, any of Bennett's writings on Gurdjieff will definitely cover some of the same ground...

[@radioalternativemusicdotco1293]

The author is actually "JG Bennett". The title of the book is "Is There Life On Earth". Robert refers to a postscript in the book that is a transcription of a lecture Mr. Bennett gave at "The International Academy For Continous Education".

[@nerdycatgamer]

YOOOO ROBERT HITTING THE GYM. get swol af

[@lamecasuelas2]

Ah yeah! King Crimson ;the band that Is closest to my favorite color which Is red

[@jolerojosta]

Nice glasses!

[@billsmith1957]

The magic fairy fingers sounds very un-Fripp, more Andy Summers like; very nice tone, a bit of flange?

[@shawnmcvey7789]

They're guitar bros, if you haven't heard their collaboration album it's pretty interesting.

[@billsmith1957]

@@shawnmcvey7789 I have both "I Advance Masked" and "Bewitched", great stuff! 👍

[@BeatlesBowieKrimson]

Sorry for being so crass: how much do you get out of the $200 concert ticket I bought last year? Seriously, though, how does it all work? How does that concert ticket money get split?

[@progrules5309]

With most musical groups they announce they are going on tour. The cost per performance is $XX. This covers band salaries. (In the case of Crimson I would imagine the musicians have a fee they charge per night. This is different than other bands who are only in the one group) Gear techs (set up, tear down trouble shoot and maintain the instruments. ) Soundman, controls what the audience hears Monitor mixer, controls what the band hears onstage. PA rental and Lighting and the techs necessary to set it up and run it. Trucks and drivers to get to the next show. Fuel for the trucks Buses and drivers to get the band and the crew members to the next show. Fuel for buses That's what is covered in the bands asked for price per performance. The promotor has to figure in cost of the venue, local labor, security, any permits from the city, and what he needs to take in to make a profit. Depending on how popular the band is in that area can determine what size venue to rent and how much to charge to cover his costs. Promoter can take a lose sometimes on up and coming bands but might feel they will become more popular in the future and will make up for it in the future. Hope this gives you some idea of where the money goes.

[@gerardhamilton8428]

No offense Robert but your wife is still incredible sexy....your a very lucky man....and a great musician

[@antoniogonzalezasencio6555]

Mr fripp, do you want to be my guitar teacher?

[@suesmith9665]

Psychopath... interesting. Blondie is my favorite too.

[@montythepython7614]

What?? I can't hear you. Please get lapel mikes.. you certainly know about projection. Why do you not employ it?!? P.s why would anyone be of the christian faith... ???

[@themourningdove7208]

Your solar plexus?🤔....

[@Peteripattaya]

I have a good song, half made! Lets make millions, if you want it.

[@boblupton583]

only one comment: SUBLIME. :)

[@superbobbytaylor6072]

Dear Lord, please stop this. It’s so embarrassing. For all of us.

[@Rich6Brew]

You speak for everyone, do you?

[@superbobbytaylor6072]

Without any doubt. Come on, man.........this is truly terrible.

[@ianstubbs1175]

Like Robert says in the video; there is an off switch

[@williamheffelfinger2923]

Ridiculous and embarrassing. .for all
