Taken from the Three of a Perfect Pair album, Sleepless was released as a single in 1984. The track is best known for its deceptively simple opening bass line, with @tonylevin using a digital delay to turn his eighth-note thumps and pops into sixteenths. “King Crimson is what progressive music is all about,” said Levin. “It’s not reproducing something that was radical 30 years ago, but the more difficult route of putting aside old ways of playing to try to come up with meaningful new music. It’s a noble quest, whether you achieve it or not.” #tonylevin #kingcrimson #sleepless #bass #basslife #scottsbasslessons #sbl
