Lone Rhino is the debut solo album by American musician Adrian Belew, released on April 26, 1982.[2] It features the musicians and much of the repertoire of Belew's pre- King Crimson band GaGa.
The album was recorded following years of Belew playing as lead guitarist for Frank Zappa, David Bowie, Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club, and seven months after his 1981 debut as the lead singer, lyricist, and second guitarist of King Crimson with Discipline. A video was produced for the track "Big Electric Cat", filmed in 1982 in New York City that opens with a shot of the World Trade Center. Belew's daughter Audie (four years old at the time) duets with her father on the last track, "The Final Rhino" (which was produced when Belew secretly recorded a piano piece improvised by Audie and then added a guitar line).[1] She also coined the word "momur" which meant anything that frightened her (monster). The song "Animal Grace" was originally called "Buy That Face" and was written about David Bowie. Members of the Springfield, Illinois High School band were enlisted to play the 7/8 coda on "Adidas in Heat".
