Funny!  I checked the track listings to see what Roxy song this was after about a minute....recognize Sylvian and def. Fripp now that another minute has passed!

Good stuff! 

Bill Play "Darkness Falls"! from Sylvian and Fripp

Great to hear more Sylvian Bill. Nice lead into the Clash. Maybe you'll reach back in Mr. Sylvian's past and pull a Japan song out?
 
I would have expected to hear Japan on RP. Come on Bill, it's definitely needed on the playlist.

Great tune Bill! Love David Sylvian, but have not listened to much of this newer material. A solid 9 from me. Thanks! Fripp is definately on this track.

Thx for the history, Bargamon. I was unaware. The first few bars pricked my KCprog ears to look it up. Now I think I hear Levin on stick. what is going on here?

Work with Fripp on "Damage" might be one the best by either.

Sylvian Did not want to be in a "band" so he rejected Fripps overtures to be in King Crimson.
Damage was with the Crim's band and sounds about right.

Added later.... I see others have commented. Good sound, especially with the KC-like guitar work.

David Sylvian, disturbed and content at the same time. He makes it work together quite well!

I hear alot of David Bowie in this, especially from "Low", very electronic.

Never heard this guy before, but then I can say that about alot of the stuff that's played here.

Hell, I keep coming back so even if this is not a "hit", something is bound to be.

Like : Porcupine Tree
Nick Drake
Elliot Smith
Gomez

I could go on all night.
