I'd swear Eno said Fripp's 'St Elmo's Fire' solo is a collage of tape snips

Saw Eno's 1979 "The Recording Studio as a Compositional Tool" tour, in Davis, California - I recall him saying one of the solos on Another Green World (I remember it as St. Elmo's Fire?) was created by manually piecing together tape snippets of individual notes. He shared an amusing anecdote: said the solo was impossible for any guitarist to play, yet he had heard from someone who claimed to have nearly mastered it - he chuckled at the amount of effort that must have taken.
Internet searches come up empty, and in fact the St. Elmo's solo is noted for being done in one inspired "lighting in a bottle" take..
Does this ring a bell with anyone? I don't think I imagined this - but... ?

would any apology have been enough to avoid the beating after "You oughta know, sweetie!" - ?

What if, instead of defending "You oughta know, sweetie!" as 'breaking balls', Little Paulie had immediately apologized to Eugene ? And what would that apology have looked like? Or was Eugene's violent reaction mandatory once Little Paulie had insulted him a little bit. "Whadid you say?" "I meant no disrespect, brother- sincere apologies! Now go home and get your fuckin' shine box!!"

I always Thought Janice shot Richie Aprile twice in the chest

I thought Janice shot Richie Aprile twice around the same spot - It didn't seem quite right, but what else could it be? Now I learn, from this group, the second was a (bloodless) head shot! I understand they couldn't go full Taxi Driver-style 'paint the kitchen floor red' - but is there a TV rule that states you can show blood on the victim's chest, but not around the head/face?
