If you count mellotron as keyboards, there was no KC record without them. Fripp is accomplished mellotronist

Well, Queen used some synths in the 70's... huh, let me see... what about 'Get Down, Make Love'? Not really a pop song... Oh, forget it...

There are no synths in that song, just weird effects near the end. But in the last notes of those effects you hear that it's actually guitars.

What about The Construction of Light, The Power to Believe and the various live albums that came from the associated tours? Not a trace of mellotron there.

wrong! Fripp plays those synth sounds on his guitar. Their are called sounscapes. King Crimson has not used melotron since '74 "Red" lp

Tool, Third Ear Band, most incarnations of King Crimson (who have never had a full time keyboard player), most incarnations of the Magic Band, Kraan, Audience, Ruins, Polytown and the Trey Gunn band off the top of my head. And Shakti. |

DeadSoul Tribe - practically no keys (although There there are songs like Lady of Rain), and still considered prog... Althought me thinks Devon Hired a kyboard player for the tour or somethin... He uesd 2 play some key bits on his own...
