They've sucked me in again tonight
King Crimson - In the Wake of Poseidon (40th anniversary edition) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkMEultG8JE#)
+ headphones = (http://r22.imgfast.net/users/2215/29/43/05/smiles/951568.gif)
These guys have always blown my mind--such great musicianship buoyed by the mystical tones of Greg Lake's otherworldly pipes=pure bliss. In fact they are rivaled only by Yes in my book for top spot in art rock (I can't stand the term "prog"). :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Court of the Crimson King was one of my first Vinyl Purchases. It's just one of those things you know was made to crackle and pop.

CCK was one of my first purchases ever as well back when i was a younger young one...the fuzzy vocals and general epic creepiness of "21st century schizoid man" definitely changed my world in several ways on that first listen.
Love King Crimson. Big time prog rocker here, although I suspect I'm the exception not the norm on these boards - this here's my favorite KC album, title song, headphones recommended...

And just because I'm so psyched to see other Crimson fans here, Starless...

So is there a Gabriel-era Genesis thread on here anywhere? ;)
So I don't consider myself a prog fan but recently I've been really digging 'In the Court' and 'Red' (from Tom Scharpling's suggestion) and it seems like there's a lot of different King Crimsons out there.
This thread hasn't seen any action in a while but I was wondering if you guys had suggestions on where to go next!
Larks' Tongues imo

Well I'm going to my first live show in just over a weeks time. Been waiting nearly thirty years to see them.
