5 stars 1969. What a year! You can find then most of the best albums ever made. In the Court of the Crimson King is one of them. All a world of imagination, the creation of a new music, a new sound of guitar in chargo of Robert Fripp. All a field of experimentation, seeking new horizons. It seems that musicians smell the disolution of The Beatles, that signed this ending decade. A new generation of rock groups is born in 1969. In the Court Of The Crimson King has the magic enough to open a new kind of rock and a new time of music. Great themes, like Epitaph, In the Court of the Crimson King, I Talk To The Wind, an of course, that hymn of the Prog Rock like 21th Century Schizoid Man is. As debut album, is a very high level, hardly overpassed after by the same King Crimson. Maybe only the album Red reaches the same level. A real masterpiece. Really essential. Five stars.
