you islands haters are nuts, man. a sailor's tale is a terrific piece of music. so is ladies of the road and song of the gulls.

the ruford/wetton years are the best but islands is great also. lizard, to me, is the spottier album.

KC is very not crap.

8 not craps - 5 craps (split decision on #'s 9 and 12)

King Crimson = Not Crap

plus - Peter Sinfeld's lyrics - total crap but on a plane above and beyond.


VERY NEARLY MY EXACT THINKING. But I haven't really liked anything post "3 of a Perfect Pair," live or studio.

Fripp - why did you let Belew sing? What are you, goofy?

Those Sinfield lyrics were so hippied out.

Said the great man to the late man
"Where have you been?"
"I've been here and I've been there and
I've been in between."

Go listen to "Lark's Tongue in Aspic Part II"...that is the track I always pass to get people into Crimson...
