I bought that record 2 days after it was released... I'm still under its spell... Who can craft such wonders at Mariah Carey's epoch of sheer junk... Beatles, Beach Boys, Procol Harum, ELP... all gone... Sad

The albums are so different from one another, probably because of the rotating cast of characters. You are never quite sure what you're going to get.

@JDsmiffy1 Thanks for sharing the song with me ♥ :)

I'm a die-hard Crimson fan, and I think that Lizard is their most underrated album. I listened to this song while, with my eyes closed, I imagine to be in a forest during spring and enjoying the freshness of it. Wow, just wow. Talk about soulhealing. The natural, medieval feel this song has is just perfect. I love how this band can masterfully use their instruments.

@kerawelt Mariah Carey is hardly that popular these days... there is much worse music.

@wcleighty - How can one pick between the first 4 albums, they are all different works of genius. I saw KC at Cambridge Corn Exchange in 1970/1? after Wake Of Posideon came out. They left the stage at the end to a tape loop of Frippertronics, a great memory! They are up there with Van Der Graaf in my opinion.

126 likes and 0 dislikes? Perfection. There are no justin bieber fans here

Jee - so hard to pick a favorite from the first 7 albums. Sometimes it's Lizard, sometimes Red - usually, and I catch a lot of flack for it -- Islands. Yes, usually it's islands. So moody

@newfuckingwave Hey, no hard feelings, I think you got me on a cranky nit picky day. I was never a Beach Boy fan, have pretty much avoided them, and I don't read the sites or magazines that talk about these people. Had to look up the history of King Crimson on Wikipedia, because even through I have enjoyed their music since the late 60's I know very little about this or any band! I love most of their music, don't need to know the musicians. Thanks :D
