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.

There was a 1979 punk girl there who I knew from the only, as we would say now, independent record store in West Palm Beach. She left after 5 minutes. I asked her about that a few days later and she said: "He was wearing a F#### Business Suit! |
Court of the Crimson King was the 1st psychedelic rock album I ever bought.. still have and play the mint LP that I bought in 69. I bought it after hearing "21st Century Schizoid Man" and "Epitaph" on an underground radio station, 300 miles away, that broadcasted after midnight. The dj went by the name Clyde Clifford and the name of his program was Beaker Street. Those were the days! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clyde_Clifford
