Full playlist:    • Robert Fripp - Exposure | Full Album  

After King Crimson disbanded in 1974, Robert Fripp took a break from the public eye. However, his move to New York in 1978 marked his return as a producer, solo artist, and collaborator with notable musicians such as Daryl Hall, Debbie Harry, Peter Gabriel, and David Bowie. Fripp released his first solo album, Exposure, in 1979, followed by two more solo records and the formation of The League Of Gentlemen in 1980. This eventually led to the reformation of King Crimson in 1981.

Exposure, Fripp's 1979 solo debut, is often regarded as a classic album. It came about through an invitation from David Bowie and Brian Eno, resulting in Fripp's appearance as the lead guitarist on Bowie's album Heroes. The album was originally conceived as part of a trilogy along with Daryl Hall's Sacred Songs and Peter Gabriel's second solo album, both of which were produced by Fripp.

Exposure faced delays in its release due to RCA postponing the release of Hall's album and Hall's manager insisting on removing some of his vocals from Exposure. When the album finally came out in 1979, it showcased a different side of Fripp compared to his earlier work with King Crimson. It featured a mix of songs, instrumentals, speech snippets, and sound collages, all tied together by an autobiographical/diary-like approach. Even amidst a period of innovative vinyl albums, Exposure stood out as a unique and captivating record.

Featuring contributions from: Barry Andrews, Phil Collins, Brian Eno, Peter Gabriel, Daryl Hall, Peter Hammill, Tony Levin, Jerry Marotta, Sid McGinnis, Terre Roche and Narada Michael Walden.
