"Let's go, Mel, c'mon"

[MrDanielphenix]

The best King Crimson album with Lizard...How amazing this period with Mel Collins....only top by...Starless with Mel Collins again... They never could compete live with the original starless...Mel Collins is always cruelly missingstarless

The Real McCoy right here!

Interesting comment re: Jade Warrior. If the Duhig brothers were part of Fripp & Co., Islands would be their jump from Vertigo to Island Records

You always have to make an effort to remark real beauty. That's how King Crimson is.

Check out a snippet of Lark's Tongues Pt 1 at 8:35

More like Jade Warrior was listening to King Crimson.....they both came out in 1971 but this was already KC's 3rd lp and JW's first.

One of the great King Crimson Albums. This liveversion gives us the Sailors Tale.

FRIPP MUST HAVE BEEN LISTENIMG TO  JADE WARRIOR BEFORE HE COMPOSED THIS !!!!

[Rishon1981]

islands is absolute materpiece to my vew. it seems than nobody can play it better than in studio album even those who played it in album:)

[Adamboms]

woah fripp plays a line from Larks tongues in Aspic pt 1 at around 8:40, guess this is probably around the time he wrote that song.

[stuffedsonic]

@Adamboms At that time the early version of larks tongues part 1 was called "A peacemaking stint unrolls" You can probably find a video on it. There was a recording of it released as a bonus track on the 40th anniversary release of Islands.

@stuffedsonic interesting, thanks for the info

[bilkrimson]

so much more to KC than 21 st ...

[bilkrimson]

absolutely amazing

I liked the upright bass, acoustic guitar and soprano vocals of the studio album, but this is still pretty gnarly
