Been playing drums for over 30 years, and still can't keep up with this tune.pure geniuses at work.

[Asymmatrix]

@axxeminister No progressive rock drummer can really keep up with Bill

[wolverinerojo]

This has to be the song that spawned Tommy the Cat

[Asymmatrix]

@wolverinerojo Maybe, but Primus is not in the same league don't you agree

[cdawghimself]

This music is just too incredible. Pure genius like nothing I've ever heard

[Asymmatrix]

@cdawghimself Right on

What the 'ell!? Only 2 comments!? man, does anybody know good music or just the static formula? What a freakin' UNDERATED album. This song is the sonic/lyrical equivalent to a bustling City from beginning to end, insane musicianship to the highest degree! Come visit our channel to find more great music and add us :D -MAVIII

Crimso and Yes, not only my favorite prog bands, but my favorite bands period. Combined with my age only being 14, I can assure you that although it may seem bleak, today's youth is not doomed!

I remember listening to this album when I was in high school. I have to thank one particular ex boyfriend for getting me hooked on Crimso. I will never. ever grow tired of this incarnation of King Crimson. They're just so damned good (and this song.. incredibly fun to try and "sing" along with... especially in the car.. where folks look at you like you're bonkers) :)

It's one thing when you make a lot of great albums, but it's another thing entirely when you make a lot of great albums that all sound completely different from each other.

@cdawghimself - You're right. I can't quite understand what holds it together. It's chaos but makes sense in a crazy way. These three Crimson albums (Red, Yellow & Blue) are among my most consistently favorite music. Saw several shows during this era and let me say I was blown away.

[WaxHeadroom]

@Asymmatrix Aint it the truth.

@Metamorphosis33 check out his (Bruford's) u-tube video on "drumming for King Crimson". :)

[pwrsrge220]

...and who's that baboon conversing with the magazine stand? Evidently HE'S getting a good reply! :) Ha, ha, love it, great tune, totally intense. BRUFORD! - there's no match.

@worldcitizengrendel LOL! Wasn't it John (Lennon) who said....when asked if Ringo was the best drummer in the world, responded: "he's not even the best drummer in the band!"? I tried to google it, but no luck!

[Bongofury361]

@axxeminister Hey, you should try to play along with Bill on the bongos!

He is my favourite drummer, and I've been playing along to him since the early days of YES, including his solo stuff with guys like Patrick Moraz!

Fortunately, I can stray somewhat (on my bongos), and use lots of fills and finger rolls (what I do with my fingers, not some type of appetizer) or else I wouldn't have a chance of keeping up!

As Bill's motto goes..."when in doubt, roll!" LOL!

I love this guy!

[worldcitizengrendel]

Hehe, I´m sure than those beatles can play like this, overall Ringo, hahahaha!

KING CRIMSON BEST BAND EVER EXISTED, idiots!
