@zachbchico...ya know what? I didn't really see what you meant until I clicked back and it came on unexpectedly, and suddenly I realized what you were saying...it sounds like the intro to the live version of "Careful With That Ax Eugene"...definitely.
Don't worry about it, you cant get or like everything you hear, I certainly don't, but i like to think i can recognise quality and musicianship when i hear it
Wetton sounds like he's ripping the fucking strings out of his bass at the end...this is so much better than the live performances posted here...I had to go back and listen to this one afterwards...Bruford definitely came up with a perfect performance on this one, too...I learned every last note of it back when I was 15 and I haven't forgotten it...

I love how king crimson can take a repetitive note and change it little by little over time to go all the way back to the original melody they started with. This is the definition of progressive.
I can not describes feelings when i am listening this song,I miss words,they are not enough for telling....about beauty,everything what you need is inside,Thank you king crimson!

Always thought this would be the perfect ambiance music for a cop/detective show.

the last 3 minutes are absolutely incredible. King Crimson complety own the prog rock genre, as far as I'm concerned.

Utterly Brilliant, Anyone know the time signature of the bass about 5 mins in? Is it 5/4?
mikkysteaders 11 months ago
@mikkysteaders 7/4 + 5/4, except for some breaks where they stay in 7/4 only. If you count like
1-2-3 1-2-3 1-2 1-2-3 1-2 it'll all fall into place, but do so before Bruford comes in because he'll mess with your mind :))
