5 stars Who wouldn't say this album is perfect? Every single sound that you hear in The Court is NOT casual, but it's the consequence of a great study made by the composers, who in 1969 (!) created this masterpiece. "21st century..." has become a prog HIT, famous all over the world, "I Talk to the wind" is a perfect ballad, but also a poem... "Epitaph", nothing to say. "Moonchild" is possibly the best track in this LP, with strange sounds and relaxing silences. The we finish with the title track, the only conclusion for a perfect disc. The thing that surprises me every time is the drum. I've never heard a more astonishing performance made by a drummer! But also Fripp is fantastic. So, don't hesitate, give 5, 5 and 5. When I think about a PROG cd, I think to "In the court": it represents all his genre. There's nothing you can say to make me change my mind. Goodbye.
