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.
King Crimson
The only knowledge I had of King Crimson was my first LP bought self titled Bad Company, and reading the bass player Boz came from Crimson. Fast forwarded 50 years and I am now hearing for the first time "in the court of the Crimson King". I know I wouldn't have liked what I love today, when I was 13. Amazing players and composers! Court is not dismissed, please remain seated.

Saw them many times since the Discipline tour. Most recently last September at the Beacon in NYC. It might have been the last US tour, although in a discussion with Fripp before the show, he eluded to perhaps a string of shows somewhere. They played in a Broadway theater for like 2 weeks in ~1996 (saw one), so I can imagine something like that. Said three members of the band are in their 70's and doing the tour bus thing was getting too difficult. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/king-crimson/2021/beacon-theatre-new-york-ny-3b8c207c.html |
