From Robert Fripp's online diary (Monday 26th January, My own edits for concision)-

"Steven (Wilson) had just done lunch... We move to this afternoon’s piece of work: Larks’ Tongues In Aspic – The Overwhelming & Surrounding Experience.

An exhausting afternoon for me, returning to this recorded once more. As Steven commented on my dribbling departure, it is intense.

The album is a classic, although it took those young players another few months before the music had been internalized through active service in the front line; and so was properly ready for recording. As a defining album, the choices in 5.1 (or whatever other format is being considered) have to be true, honouring both the originating intentions & the current form & technoscape. This requires re-entering the creative space where the music came from; and returning through the emotional wringer.

I left with headache, dribbling pitifully, a superb job well done. Steven has been a hero, once again; another labour of love."

I find it interesting that Fripp states "or whatever other format is being considered". Hmm... Not dead, I hope, but at the moment... Wait, what IS that smell???
