Michael Giles on the Giles,Giles & Fripp song “Erudite Eyes,” recorded in 1968:
“We’d found an area of freedom where you weren’t a jazzer or a rocker, you just got into this other zone. It’s an exciting place to be. There are some fabulous moments where you’ve got an instrument in front of you and you’ve got the ability to manipulate this set of tools… you get to a higher level and something else is playing you, something else is telling you what to do.”
