5 stars The first album by the most famous Crimson line-up after a period of coming-and-going bandmembers. It's a sublime collection of avant-rock, highlighted by the skills of each subsequent bandmember. There are 3 actual 'songs' here, the rest given over to lenghty instrumentals which ranges from a superb build-up (The Talking Drum) to impressive riffage (Larks' Tongues In Aspic pt 2) to a mixture of that and the quieter moments of some of the vocal pieces (Larks'Tongues In Aspic pt 1). The 'songs' consist of a quiet, poppy little song called Book Of Saturdays, a lengthy, misty ballad (Exiles) and a quite effective avant-rocksong with some great instrumentation (Easy Money). This definitely is an album you should buy, a classic!
