Critics have often contended that Robert Fripp's guitar concepts of the late 1970s and 1980s - you can hear them in Frippertronics as well as the League of Gentlemen, King Crimson IV, and Guitar Craft - owe a debt to the minimalist tradition of Steve Reich, Philip Glass, La Monte Young, and Terry Riley - a tradition that began in the 1960s as a rebellion against the academic serial music of the 1940s and 1950s. From its beginnings, minimalism seemed to have something in common with rock: a steady pulse, plenty of repetition, a grounding in simple tonality. Furthermore, the audiences for both types of music overlapped to a considerable extent. Albums like Riley's A Rainbow in Curved Air (1969) were packaged psychedelically and marketed to the rock public; many of Philip Glass's early performances took place not in classical concert halls but in downtown New York rock clubs.
