Quote (larstangmark @ July 30 2009, 11:47) | I love King Crimson, but I think their first LP is a bit overrated. Try Lizard, Islands or Red for some really mind-blowing stuff. The first LP has been hyped by journalists because it has been influental (which it has! , but I think it sounds more like a collection of prog rock clichés. |
Well, they are clichés now that everyone has used them. ![:)](/forums/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif) By the way, the only real fault I see in that record is Moonchild -- that instrumental work is too limp and unfocused to sound truly engaging. The other four tracks are tops, however.
By favourite King Crimson record is, by a country mile, Larks' Tongues in Aspic, no doubt about it.
