King Crimson

I was in college, at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, in the late 1970s, and had a bunch of friends who were way into progressive rock, so I knew, and loved, King Crimson from back in the day. Had the great good pleasure of seeing them on the Discipline tour, too -- awesome show. I've continued to listen to them over the years, always standing (or sitting) in amazement. Yes, enjoy what's ahead. And do turn it up!

Really liked the first four albums, before the personnel began to change.  If you like the lyrics, the main writer, Pete Sinfield, made a solo disc, which is worth seeking out.  At least one other of the original band members also made a (forgettable) solo disc.  And so it goes with groups.

Wow, I would love to hear Court of the Crimson for the first time again. Enjoy! 

 @twoleftears Yeah, for instance, I never really liked McCarthy after he left his first backup band and started Wings. I think the first band called themselves The Beatles. 

28 official releases. All good QC thanks to Robert Fripp.

Enjoy!

I am fascinated by the recording of instruments and sounds. Islands in 1970? I don't believe anyone else was using the studio this way...a few years later the Dan? Compositions include different genres, crazy good, next up...Larks'
