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.

Also listen to Thrak it has been remastered on CD and 200 gram vinyl. Excellent album with the triple double lineup. There are some great songs on it.

+1 on Thrak don’t overlook it and most any live KC album is worth the money.

Late King Crimson alboms are really well recorded you may fully enjoy them. Among their early albums ones with Greg Lake i like more. I love to hear his voice.

And Emerson, Lake & Palmer is my number one rock group - three super genius musicians together (together with Led Zeppelin in another number one branch). Even their classical early alboms are quite well recorded (except Brain Salad Surgery that, for me, sounds odd - i don't mean the music of course).
