Damn so many great musicians passing just this past month. His work on the Great Anhilliator is amazing not to mention all the great Wax Trax cuts. So sad that he has passed

Just found out he was actually playing keyboards with Crimson instead of drums by the time I saw them. Even cooler because the (keyboard player I didn't recognise) was good (obviously they're all good it's King Crimson). Impressive stuff - talented guy.

Yesterday i read a post from Fripp regarding the history of Rieflin on the KC page, found out he was "forced" to move to keyboards because of his disease, didn't know about that. Never saw them live but i listened a lot to their Live in Mexico City where he was performing keyboard duties, impressive nonetheless.

I didn't know that, just read the blog post. That's a real shame, must have been hard for him. Glad he got to stay with them and keep playing.
