Ever. They don't compromise. (Especially not with each other.) They experiment with sonic innovation in ways that are always unheard of and centuries ahead of its time. When they rock out, they blow me away. When they play ballads, they reduce me to tears. They use musical juxtaposition both more deliberately and more obviously then anything else I've ever heard. All hail King Crimson!!! They are the Wagner of rock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This album mesmerizes me everytime I hear it, especially "Fallen Angel" and "Starless". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This album mesmerizes me everytime I hear it, especially "Fallen Angel" and "Starless". Would you have liked to hear what it would've sounded like if Ian McDonald rejoined and Robert Fripp left That's what was going to happen, to my knowledge. The Red tour would've rendered Red a completely unplayable song.... It'd be interesting nonetheless, methinks, but I thank my lucky stars every day that I'm graced with King Crimson's music, in whatever form.

Er, second confession time... I'm a terrible keyboard player. The most complex stuff I play in my band is stuff written and drilled into my head by Byron, the group's bass player, who can run circles around most people I know on the piano and doesn't even play it in the band. (He's also an incredible bassist with a very free style, of course.) I will keep those in mind, I've definitely been meaning to pick up some Camel. (I have none. ) Right now, though, the music on the top of my list to pick up is some Dream Theater, Opeth and Happy Family. The former two my older brother got me into, and though I know them quite well, I don't own any albums. (I do have an AWESOME Opeth DVD though. ) The latter I chanced upon oun Amazon, listened to samples, and blew me away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
