The tense build-up that is The Talking Drum.

I love the end of the softer middle part in Satori in Tangier when the band goes back to the original edgy motif, particularly the drum break but also the change in guitar sound and style.

Mine is the screaming violin after TTD, leading into Fripp's crashing guitar chords to open LTIA Part 2!!

Haven't seen them live :( too young.. But musically, the first time I hear Starless and Bible Black, Lament starts, and I think to myself ''Huh, what a nice and calm way to follow the great deceiver'' and then the bass-drum section hits in, and Fripp starts his chromatic riffs, and then John Wettons rough rusty vocals hit in and then eargasm.

1) Getting Thrakked at the House of Blues in New Orleans

Between Crimsons:

2) Catching the League of Gentlemen at Record Revolution in Cleveland Heights, Ohio and being able to witness Fripp's technique up close.

3) Speaking with Adrian Belew at a bar in Lexington, Kentucky during a set break at a Bears concert. He was kind enough to share some insights when I asked him what it was like working in a powerhouse like KC. He spoke of the delicacy of working through the creative process in a band with such strong personalities. He was clearly having a great time playing with the Bears. The dude is one animated big electric cat!

Live in studio on German TV Beat-Cub, late 1972 with Jamie Muir. Twas telepathy. Probably their finest hour.
Then they were THE best fusion group on Earth. Jamieīs departure was such a great loss, I really miss that man.
You may see a smile on Tony Banksī face but thatīs unlikely.

Gotta go with the song "Trio" off of Starless & Bible Black. Truly magical piece.
"Larks' tongues. Wrens' livers. Chaffinch brains. Jaguars' earlobes. Wolf nipple chips. Get 'em while they're hot. They're lovely. Dromedary pretzels, only half a denar."
