Verse 3
By contrast Lark Tongues part (C sharp major) two has (G major) been a regu
(C sharp major) lar fea (G major) ture in the set list
Subversively all the line- ups since it was first released
(E flat major) in (C sharp major) (G major) (C sharp major) (A flat major) (C sharp major) (G major) (C sharp major) (G major) 1973
As it's pop (C sharp major) ularity,
(G major) is because (C minor) it can be seen as a very (G major) sensual piece (C sharp major)
Robert Frip (A flat major) p (C sharp major) has described (B flat major) it (G major) as following
the (C minor) con tours (G major) of the sexual (C sharp major) pro cess
(E flat major) (C sharp major) In fact, the 1974 (G major) French
soft porn movie (C sharp major) "Emmanuel"
(G major) Ripped (C sharp major) off the music as the soundtrack (G major)
(C sharp major) for the sex scenes
This was in the days before DVD or video
So (G major) Robert Frip (C minor) p (C sharp major) was sent by his manage
(G major) ment into a cinema (C sharp major) in (G major) Paris
Armed with (C sharp major) a cassette machine to record
the soundtrack (G major) (C minor) and give his opinion (C sharp major) (A flat major) (E flat major)
(C minor) There was a protracted legal dispute,
(C sharp major) eventually he was (E flat major) (C sharp major) duly acknowledged (G major) as the writer (C sharp major) (G major) (A flat major) (C sharp major)
Verse 4
(G major) With (C sharp major) so many versions of this piece
over such a long period
(C minor) There's (C sharp major) been some heated (G major) discussion
about which to include (C sharp major) in this (G major) series (C sharp major)
(G major) Over the (C sharp major) years, it's been (G major) played very (C minor) dif
ferently (C sharp major) and at (G major) very different (C sharp major) tempos
I was (G major) (C sharp major) (G major) just listening to the (C minor) version
(C sharp major) from (G major) Mexico City in 1996
And if this is lovemaking,
then it's unbelievably quick and energetic (C sharp major) (G major)
By contrast, the version we (C minor) fi
nally (G major) chosen
Is a fascinating incomplete snippet from the studio
sessions in London in (C sharp major) 1973
While the piece (G major) was still being recorded
It has a (C sharp major) war en (G major) ergy as well as a rare chance to hear
John Wetton's wonderful bass playing exposed
So here it is Lark Tongues
In Aspic part two
From Larks Tongues boxset in 2012
