Three of a Perfect Pair is a piece from King Crimson's eponym album. It is from the Adrian Belew era of the group, introducing a new overall sound as well as complicated intricate patterns between the guitars of Adrian Belew and Robert Fripp. Tony Levin uses a Chapman stick bass in this piece. The drums part is based around an ostinato on the hihat which makes it quite tricky to play.
The version here is reduced to 90% speed in order for EiderJC to be able to follow the pace. It is a version played by Astro Guitar on Youtube where he recorded both guitars as well as the stick bass part. Kudos to him !

Great Song! Great Vocals! Great Drums! Never tried but wouldn't mind taking a shot at doing the bass.

Adrian Belew is in the house!
I synced up the original Adrian Belew vocals, if you want to use that temporarily until your vocalist records.
This is what I do for fun. I love this song. Can't wait to hear this collab completed!

As one drummer to another (and one KC fan to another), I must say you are the most skilled drummer I've heard play on this website so far. Very refreshing to see and hear you play this song so flawlessly. Love to hear more from you, and I hope your collaborators will be equally skilled.

Thx CopyCat but far from being flawless... I know every blooper I did and I did some ;) And I've been playing this for almost 2 years so not a big deal. Took about 3 monthes to get the feel of it, the ostinato is hard to keep with the bass drum and the final part is quite hard too.

@BlackPage: Fantastic work so far, guys. Let me know if I can help with mixing or anything. Sounds like vocals could use a boost. For that, you can use the "Gain" control under the wrench, on the main Studio page. Nice to meet you.
