I see some of the people making comments saying they got progressive albums " three
months ago '" or being new in prog rock ....
I have this album in LP, in CD , the 30 anniversary edition -made in Holland- why?
because this is a classic !
if you are new into art rock, this is the album you gotta take like example of what is prog
rock .. I actually didn't listen this album very often .. I mean, I need to be in a special
mood, in a very special relaxation, concentration, focused 100% in listening the whole
album .. it deserves all of your concentration ..
everyone knows Robert Fripp is a genius, eveyone who's Greg Lake, everyone knows this
is the best line-up ever ..
it's 1969 ..beatles have already recorded " a day in the life" ...world is in shock .. the
marvelous Sgt Pepper lonely club hearts LP .. the experimental time has born
it's 1969 .. and well, this album it's ahead of time ! ...
of course, there's ELP,VDGG,floyd,Genesis,focus, but like in life itself, not always the
best have the credit...
psychedelia,art rock, great lyrics,drama, emotion,sadness,joy,peace,you say ... all of
these you will find in this album .. that's what prog rock is about.
just 5 songs, a whole concept ...
this album is one of the top 10 albums of all time in every genre .. obviously you will
never see it in many polls or magazines' list ... but that's much better ... prog rock is not
for common people ...
I don't want to give my opinion about each song, because everyone has a way to see
this album .. I only can say , it's PERFECT , the cover, lyrics... everything considering the
year (1969).. that's very important to point
there's Sgt Pepper , there's never mind the bollocks, there's dark side , there's ok
computer, there's nirvana ... and THERE'S IN THE COURT OF THE KING CRIMSON ...
ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS EVER ....
