The fripp line on top of the belew 7/8 is basically the same riff in alternating bars of 6 and 7, but KEEPING THE SAME 8th note value. This produces the funky intervals you hear... and you thought it was a delay! (I know *I* did first time I heard it... 8-)).

The chording during fripps' wacked out picking in the intro and between verses seems to be a barred 9th chord, dropping the unison on the G string to the major 7th, ie
Which modulates up to the 7th fret, then 10th, then 11th. The rhythm is strange, I can't pin down if it's sextuplets, 6 against 4, or what. It seems like he adds some notes sometimes to make things fit in.
