Amidst the Wailing Turmoil In Paradise we hear another instrumental voice sliding and surfing across the surface of this vast wave of soundscapes. Fripp notes that “Both Billy & Steve joined the Soundscapes: powerful, wild & lotsa fun.”
When the scapes are wound up into a frenzied circulation, Vai responds with what sounds like a primal howl, gauging anguished notes out of the instrument. At the end, the distant cheers of the crowd can heard. While some would undoubtedly be cheers of relief, there were some in the audience who loved what they heard.
Vlad had this to say: “Robert Fripp may have not fitted very well into the G3 idea, but his avant-garde musical experiments with the "Soundscapes" prove great inventivity and skill. I am almost certain that the improvisation was inspired by the wind and the rain clouds that were in the sky. There was a lot of feeling in it, and philosophy, as a friend said. Unfortunately he played only about 15 minutes, probably because of the negative feedback I see he is receiving or because of the rather indifferent attitude of the public.”
