IN THE COURT OF THE CRIMSON KING

At the edge of the seventies, God Fripp rose from his throne and sat, let there be prog! He picked up the greatest musicians ever and created a court of kings. Well first, I just have to say that since the first time I listened to this album, I can't see any pieces of music that can blow this legendary record. 21st Century Schizoid Man..... Peter must be the greatest visionnary lyricist in the history of rock music. ''Nothing he's got, he really needs'', those are the words that made history. Through the frantic orchestration of the kings, you don't know where to give attention. From the insane Fripp guitar play, to the complex drums of Michael Giles, THE SONG IS THE PERFECT DESCRIPTION OF PROGRESSIVE ROCK (not to say that it started progressive too!). I don't think I need to say more about one of the greatest piece of music ever made, if it is not....... I just feel that it is POOR to give a five on this album, because it deserve much more, not only to me, but for everybody. It doesn't matter if you like it or not. This album is the reason why Progarchives actually exist, and it's listed 8# on your top progressive album...... Listen this album another time and think twice.
