Hard to see how you arrive at that. Everyone's name and country are clearly displayed, and watching and listening confirms that you're hearing the people or person who is onscreen. One player hands off to the next, and they overlap for a few seconds. Also, I'd wager that every one of these people played the entire composition, and that Anthony picked good parts from the individuals, and edited them in when they were playing their good parts.
It's clear they were all playing the song. It's also fairly obvious that they probably got thousands of submissions and chose the people who played it correctly and well. Very cool!
I invite you to learn 4 bars of this section the "Moto Perpetuo", playing them with everything that requires. Only then, we could have a conversation about this. Best wishes! ;)
You are a Guitar Heroe, Gretch! Thank you for your fully support on this project! It is a pleasure to have so amazing people in this project, like you!
Very touching to see the inspiration RF has brought to players around the world and the dedication eith which everyone has responded by contributing to this piece, each in her or his unique voice.
Jennifer Batten! I've met her. :-) She was doing a small personal solo tour about 15 years ago, and I got to talk to her quite a bit. Great lady and fantastic guitar player.
"This night wounds time" BTW, Gretchen, Zepparella's show in St. Charles (Chicagoland) in 2019 was FANTASTIC!! Thank you and the rest of the ladies/musicians!!! My quote is from the back of the album. Yes, I still have the vinyl...
The more I listen to it, the more I like it, I do think it's good! Good that people are learning this music, especially the younger artists/musicians. Nice to know that the new younger musicians are not being dismissive of that old dad rock/art rock/prog rock (that has had a rough time with critics, even when the music was new! Prog as it was known back in the 1970's was given a hard time, especially when Punk came along). Hats off to everyone, young and old, in the video, if I tried to play this I'd need surgery to untie and reconnect my mashed up fingers! I think I'll leave it to those with the talent to pull it off and settle for being happy to be an attentive listener.
So there I am chilling to some people playing through Fracture and suddenly freaking Jennifer Batten just casually pops up! Also, didn't Chris Gibson sub for Bill Rieflin in KC at some point in 2017 or so?
Props to Rachel for the bass support. Fracture is cool in so many ways, but for me what really stands out are the parts besides guitar. Really original (esp. for 1974). I think we all know the tendency for everyone in the band to want to play 16th notes in sync with (or at least be as hyper as) a guitar part like that. But here the bass part is really inventive, and really adds to the rhythmic feel. So Rachel makes this twice as fun and REALLY sound like Fracture. Wetton 4ever 💛.
Great to see one of the original League of Crafty Guitar players in there Hideyo Moriya who is with the California Guitar Trio! Have seen them numerous times, and will soon when the open for the great King Crimson this summer! [plug plug]
Quite simply--I love this!! What a beautiful thing, Anthony. You're turning this remarkable piece of music into a worldwide phenomenon. 47 years after its original release! This is single-handedly helping a great piece of music live on, and as a bit of a Fracture fanatic myself, I thank you for your decades of effort.
I have seen videos, some of these players, even playing full length versions on RUclips. A quick search will find them. AFAIK this is a tribute to a fabulous man who has spent his life following a dream and making huge changes to modern musical culture. From orchestras to bluegrass bands his music is there, thriving and challenging all who play and listen. Happy Birthday🥳🥳🥳Bobby Wilcox!
Quite a feat trying to play this song.Kudos I think really though Robert is the only person that can play it with its original vibe intake.For a man who is so dead pan his music is quite soulful.Most players in trying to actually play it perfect in up making end sounding clinical.The guitar faces are funny to watch though.
Ps- The guitar is not the main reason i like this song,what makes it amazing is the composite of Drums,Bass and violin which give it dynamic and melodic backing.Wetton esp makes the song menacing.
when i was young, playing a jimmy page solo note for note meant you were a great player. we were kids, what ya expect. now on youtube its playing holdsworth, but i think this track will eventually be the one you have to master and play on youtube to show you are a worthy guitarist. its great, people mastering difficult prog and fusion guitar parts and exploring that type of music. its what you want if you love music. guitar playing now is so great its crazy, and its hopeful for the future more and more players as good as masters like fripp keeping the flame alive.
There's a lot to be said about what makes a guitarist great. It's not playing like Holdsworth or playing Fracture (though those things can help!), but being original. These pieces of music are great because they are so uniquely a part of the player. EVH had Eruption, Steve Vai has For the Love of God, Fripp has Fracture.
Nice! Thanks for posting. I was nerding out on the guitar types being played, good to see a coupla Teles! I do NOT have the discipline for playing this, but enjoy watching others!
Ouch, that made my wrist and arm ache just watching it! Great job everyone. I might have been able to manage one note - just the one - and I'd have probably played it badly too. ;-)
He may not lie per se but he often bends the truth and conveniently omits facts that are not to his liking, though. Still an amazing musician, though, of course.
@@MakeWeirdMusic Such a shame you didn't do the version where there's that open string tremolo picking in the bridge. I've been woodshedding that for weeks! Maybe the strategically-placed capos on my 9-string (each string tune a minor 7th apart) will help me hack through a Holdsworth hang!

10 seconds a shot isn't playing "Fracture". Plus it is impossible to tell who is playing what
Every party has a pooper!
Hard to see how you arrive at that. Everyone's name and country are clearly displayed, and watching and listening confirms that you're hearing the people or person who is onscreen.

@@MakeWeirdMusic I gave him a like anyway. He needed one.
It's clear they were all playing the song. It's also fairly obvious that they probably got thousands of submissions and chose the people who played it correctly and well. Very cool!

Superb job, guys!
Agreed. Thanks for your participation, Augusto!
That's perfect!
as a prog rock musician from wayyyy back, and saw KC many times, its great to see young musicians learning this music.
Thanks for checking it out!
Kudos to everybody, well done! Loved seeing those amazing women represented and rocking out!
Couldn't agree more!
Wow Anthony, that Fripp stare is now as good as the original!
Congrats to everyone that made this possible!
Soon my transition will be complete.
I actually have a few pages in my book about the look lol
@@MakeWeirdMusic Your GC face is what reminds me of friend Aaron. It's awesome.
Haha that’s funny!
What an honour to be part of this with such wonderful humans!🎸❤️
Thanks Anthony and Octavio for make this possible!!
Carlos, you did so well! Thank you so much!
Thanks for joining, my friend
Thanks for inviting me, and thank you for all the dedication you and Octavio put into this project!❤️
We did it!!! Amazing job Carlos! 🔥

You are a Guitar Heroe, Gretch!
Thank you for your fully support on this project!
It is a pleasure to have so amazing people in this project, like you!
Love to all off you from Mendoza!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!
HBD, Robert Fripp! I enjoyed the variety of players and guitars. I would have liked to hear all of Fracture played on the Tele.
Hah!
20 years ago I thought I'd never hear this piece played again. I've never been so delighted to be wrong! Bravo!
Wonderful!
Totally the most original music you will ever listen too, will never ever stop listening to king crimson, Robert Fripp thank you sir
Thanks for watching!
So well done by everyone, and a seamless job of editing it all together. Bravissimo!!!
Glad you liked it, Beil!
Music really can bring people together. Nothing is impossible. Thank you.
100% agreed
Congratulations great performance very inspiring, awesome
Thank you very much!

Jennifer Batten! I've met her. :-) She was doing a small personal solo tour about 15 years ago, and I got to talk to her quite a bit. Great lady and fantastic guitar player.
She's great!

My quote is from the back of the album. Yes, I still have the vinyl...
My dad still uses that quote on the regular, John haha
It's cool to hear the different tones as the players change. Great vid and performances!
All audio credit goes to the amazing Tony Geballe
I love the way you did the handoffs. Don't know how I missed this when it first came out.
Very proud to see my father Dan Charbonneau apart of this project!
He was delighted to have participated with this crop of incredible talent!
Sorry about the last name misspelling, but very glad he could participate!
Hi Jennifer :) Awesome.
Love seeing her in this!
Robert should be honored to hear the “impossible made possible” by a world forum of great players! 🌎⭐️🌍💫🌏💞
He shared the video today, so he must have at least enjoyed it
Marvelous idea. Beautifully executed. Kudos to all the performers!
Thank you very much!
Outstanding - hats off in particular to all the amazing lady shredders.
They are fantastic!
So many great players, music knows no borders.
So well done!!!
Totally agree
Outrageous!! Congratulation on this event.
Thank you!
These are wonderful human beings! And so good to know a few of them in person. I am a happy boy! Thank you so much!
Thank you Frieder!

Music Critics/taste makers are the worst even up till this day.
Absolutely awe-inspiring. So beautiful. Thank you for doing this.
You are so welcome!
Absolutely inspiring! Great job by all! Someday I'll get there!
Good luck. You can do it.
Me encantó este vídeo. Robert Fripp simplemente es un gran artista. Y este tema musical de mis favoritos.
Gracias por tu labor...
De nada me amigo.
@@MakeWeirdMusic tú también eres un gran músico... abrazo desde Perú
I might be in Peru next month. Stay tuned!
@@MakeWeirdMusic avísame por favor. Estoy en Lima actualmente, espero poder conocerlo
Thank you, fellow fracturers!
Thank you too!
You were fantastic Emiliano!
❤️🔥🤘
Wow grea job guys from chile 🎸
Thanks for watching!
So there I am chilling to some people playing through Fracture and suddenly freaking Jennifer Batten just casually pops up!
Also, didn't Chris Gibson sub for Bill Rieflin in KC at some point in 2017 or so?
Yep!
Happy Birthday, Robert Fripp - your inspiration spans the globe.
As someone else put it, we're all students of Robert Fripp :)
Love this. But the guy at 4.04 was playing it really slow and the film was speeded up! I mean, look at the people walking by!
Nope. No speed adjustments. But people didn’t shoot in the same video formats and frame rates. So that might have an effect
Awesome stuff, loved all inputs, different tones and personal perspectives on this classic. Kudos to all involved!
Glad you enjoyed it!
And I think to myself...what a wonderful world❤❤❤
What a range of expressions, with so many of pure joy. Wonderful.
Thank you!
Amazing, loved to see so many great players from all around the globe and the edition of the video. ¡Buen trabajo!
So glad you liked it.
Very, very cool! And hear, hear, on the diversity! Well done, people! Love and best wishes from Denver, Daniel
Thank you!
I know my comment won't say anything new, but THIS IS AMAZING! Thank you both!
Thanks so much, Mark.

So glad you like it!
Bravo! Standing ovation here.
Great to see so many players giving Fracture a try!
Lovely! Thanks to everyone.
Our pleasure!
That is one interesting piece. Very Leo Brouwer-y!!!

Estoy feliz por el resultado. ❤️
Thanks for your work!
¡Muchisimas gracias!

This just made my day! Now, on bass.... GO.
Hahaha, no doubt that Rachel could play it on her 8-string
Nice one, music makes us one.
Indeed it does. No borders.
Love it ! I'm currently learning this piece and I hope I can play in less than 20 years !
Buy the book and save yourself a few years haha
Well done, everyone. Thank-you.
You're welcome

Rock on! Thanks for watching
37 people have ascended, more to come. Love you and thank you all!
I hope we can inspire more people to play it
Really enjoyed it. I'm off to start mangling it right now!!!
Bless your poor fingers.
Awesome editing... now we have tons of guitar players names to search on the net!!!
So many great players. Thanks for watching!
This will be exciting!!!
Yes it will!
You were awesome!!
You are amazing, Commander!!! Thank you for your participation!!! ❤️🔥
What a fantastic idea!!! This will be super fun!
Can’t wait to hear what you thinj
What an amazing idea! Man i wish i was playing on this!
Well done everybody!!!!
We'll have to be more public next time. I'm doing a Holdsworth competition video in a few weeks. Stay tuned.
Oh my God, I can't believe Robert Fripp can play that song! Bravo to all the talented guitarists and the people who put this rogether.
Yeah, you should hear it at full tempo
great!, it sounds so robert fripp king´s crimson
That's cuz it is!
sheer madness ... ;-) !
Complete insanity!
Eagerly awaiting this. Update: Awesome job everybody!
Rightly so.
Brilliant..luvit👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Brilliant!
Thanks!
Ouch, that made my wrist and arm ache just watching it! Great job everyone. I might have been able to manage one note - just the one - and I'd have probably played it badly too. ;-)
Hahaha, don't listen so hard!
This is amost original idea and keeps the brst ever rock track alive. After 50 years, yay 🎉
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!!
Crazy !
Estuvo genial !
Otraaaa!
Another one
Which song?
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it, Lovblad
Great to see how many woman can play a good guitar !
We wanted a diverse crowd
Felicidades desde Ecuador
Gracias, amiga!
One of these guys played live with King crimson. Although not guitar...
This is going to be EPIC!!
It was epic!
I’m so chuffed! Everyone did so well!
That was really cool! Music is the universal language!
I think this is all video trickery. Fripp said this song is impossible to play, and Fripp doesn't lie!
You should know. You did the biggest trick of all! playing it at the beach
Zappa also said that his G Spot Tornado was impossible........... he was delighted it was..... Fripp might be wrong not lie....
He may not lie per se but he often bends the truth and conveniently omits facts that are not to his liking, though. Still an amazing musician, though, of course.
They're called "aphorisms." :)
Ahahahah...
Ohhhh fuck missed my chance haha. Maybe on the next one! This is gonna be a long journey...
We will be doing an Allan Holdsworth chord competition in the next few weeks. Stay tuned!
Excelente !
thank you
COOL AS HECK!!!!! What an awesome mix pf pickin' peeps!!!! Kudos to ALL! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ (And Happy Birthday to ROBERT FRIPP!)
Dude, I wish you were in it, too! I still want you in the Holdsworth video...
@@MakeWeirdMusic Such a shame you didn't do the version where there's that open string tremolo picking in the bridge. I've been woodshedding that for weeks! Maybe the strategically-placed capos on my 9-string (each string tune a minor 7th apart) will help me hack through a Holdsworth hang!
Lolol
Amazing all. thanks
Thanks, Jorge!
the greatest choice! the braviest guitraplayers! the biggest job!!! cheers!
Amazing! I am sad I missed this challenge. Where was it advertised by the way? I would have loved to send a submission. Great stuff!
It wasn't advertised. We just leveraged our network.
Well done all!
Thank you!
This soon Feel good!!

Heck yeah
This needs to be listened to on a decent stereo system. The guitars sound double-tracked. :)
No double-tracking, but mastered by Tony Geballe who knows what he's doing. Thanks, Anthony!
🌠Wow ! Really Good !
Thanks, Gregory!
