God Save the King is actually a split release and/or a Robert Fripp compilation, depending on how you look at it. In 1980, Robert Fripp released something of a split disc himself, called God Save the Queen/Under Heavy Manners, consisting of a side of Frippertronics and a side of Discotronics, the latter being Frippertronics with a "dance-oriented" (according to Fripp) rhythm section. Also in 1980, Fripp formed a new group, borrowing the name from his early-'60s band, the League of Gentlemen.
This "new" League of Gentlemen toured for much of 1980, releasing The League of Gentlemen in 1981. In 1985, Fripp took a couple of the Discotronics tunes and a bunch of The League of Gentlemen tracks, and created a compilation of Frippian "dance music," which was then entitled God Save the King. It's a fine offering, but fans would still like to see both albums issued in their entirety.
tracklist & personnel:
This is essentially a compilation from two of Robert Fripp's early 80's bands, and this version is the 1989 remaster.
The first two tracks were recorded in 1979, released on the 1980 album "God Save The Queen/Under Heavy Manners". Track 1 was over-dubbed in 1983, renamed, and was formerly known as "The Zero Of The Signified" on the 1980 album.
