This actually makes sense bc the song is in 5 and you can sorta see where the knots form a star pattern around the perimeter of it (and iirc one of those 5 patterns only lines up every 3rd time which reflects the 3 loops in the middle)

Chris Squire would have relished Tony Levin's bass lines and given it that Chris Squire touch. Alan White would have mastered Bill Bruford's drum part as he had done over and over in Yes. Steve Howe just might pull off playing both guitar parts simultaneously. How? Yes.

"During the piece the two guitars of Belew and Fripp, respectively, move through the following sequence of pairs of time signatures: 5/8 and 5/8, 5/8 and 4/4, 5/8 and 9/8, 15/16 and 15/16, 15/16 and 14/16, 10/8 and 20/16, 15/16 and 15/16, 15/16 and 14/16, 12/16 and 12/16, 12/16 and 11/16, 15/16 and 15/16, 15/16 and 14/16. "Throughout the drums play in 17/16 - the Bill Bruford drumming video, 'Bruford and the Beat,' builds up to an explanation of the 17/16 pattern used (including the fact that the 4/4 bass drum pattern is maintained as a 'dance groove') and includes a live performance of the track interleaved with an interview with Robert Fripp about aspects of the track. "In other interviews Fripp has explained that the track was composed as an exercise in discipline - no single instrument is allowed to take the lead role in the performance, nor to play as simply an accompaniment to the other instruments, but each player must maintain an equal role while allowing others to do the same."

Heard 'Discipline' for the first time back in 1983, when I was 15 years old. It blew the top of my head off, like the rest of the album did. Around that time I had taken my dad's cheap nylon string guitar off the wall to learn myself how to play. 'Discipline' seemed impossible to play and it was. I let go and practised songs from The Police on the old six-string. Three decades later, in the possession of a Les Paul, and with the discipline I couldn't muster when I was young, and with the aid of KZbin, I started practising 'Discipline'. What a wonderful journey that is! Layer after layer I peeled off, needed to work on my picking craft, even needed to rethink the way I hold my pick. Speaking of practising patience... Step by step, frame by frame getting there... A musical pilgrimage.

I've been working on the Belew part. The notes he is playing are not difficult at all. I know exactly what he's playing, but I can't do it at that speed, even after hours of practice doing those riffs over and over. And you have to tune out Fripp, because that polyrhythm throws you completely off even when you're playing the same damn riff over and over with the Belew part. Fripp's part is far more brutal and I can't even approach it at the moment.

During the piece the two guitars of Belew and Fripp, respectively, move through the following sequence of pairs of time signatures: 5/8 and 5/8, 5/8 and 4/4, 5/8 and 9/8, 15/16 and 15/16, 15/16 and 14/16, 10/8 and 20/16, 15/16 and 15/16, 15/16 and 14/16, 12/16 and 12/16, 12/16 and 11/16, 15/16 and 15/16, 15/16 and 14/16."Throughout the drums play in 17/16 - the Bill Bruford drumming video, 'Bruford and the Beat,' builds up to an explanation of the 17/16 pattern used (including the fact that the 4/4 bass drum pattern is maintained as a 'dance groove'

I saw KC at The Venue, London, in October 1981, on the Discipline album tour. I was 17 at the time, and the gig was still the most amazing thing I've ever seen, it's not even close.

@@UrbanMonkey55 I believe the difficulty level behind this track is not about being able to play each instrument separately, but keeping everything flowing when playing together with the band. Way too many polyrhythms within it, everyone's playing a separate thing. It's easy to get lost. Even KC doesn't always play it tight live.

This is rock music for grown up adults. And there are very little examples of such grown up adult music in the "popular musix from the the 20th/21th century" (most of it actually fall in the "jazz" category, but sadly it's not been that much popular for the last 50 years or so). It is sad to see that from an historical persepective, rock music chose to stay a teenager forever, never growing up nor taking its full responsibilites. But then perhaps it's by its very own definition.
