Thumb Up King Crimson


There is and has been a King Crimson book availabe for awhile now detailing the bands history and the recording of classic albums such as 'In the Court of the Crimson King' and 'Larks Tongues in Aspic' etc. It's a great read, I reccomend it highly for any fan of the band.

There is also a website supporting the book with lots of reviews and various other interesting bits and pieces here: http://www.inthecourtofkingcrimson.com/index.php?36

excellent, wouldn't mind hearing some live stuff of theres... never really looked past 'in the court of the crimson king' my uncle suggested the 'red' album, something like that anyway. but perhaps later, im going through a bit a of a brit pop/shoegaze phase at the moment.

Red is definitely worth checking out. So is Larks Tongues in Aspic and Starless and Bible Black. I also really like the 80's King Crimson stuff although some people are not so taken with it. And their last studio album The Power To Believe is also good.

i think they did well with that inspiration. the salival record is quite damn good, although i heard they weren't as consistant live as it seems.

Could never see why king crimson were so good, tool for me are way superior.
Although the two have toured together i could never say a bad thing about tool and on the other hand i think king crimson suck
