Man, this is like a breath of fresh air: some folks will pussyfoot around the subject, calling the stuff they don't like "overrated", "overhyped", "overpromoted" ... and you just tell it like it is

I never understood the deal with "The Devil's Triangle". Am I missing something or is it literally ten minutes of a mellotron making noise over a bolero rhythm? |

Robert Fripp is over-rated on PA. Otherwise, if you asked your neighbor this question, they'd be like, "Robert who?"

does anybody know the deal with Poseidon? I've always wondered what was up with it, it's like literally a variation on In The Court...

Yeah, I cannot think of any prog rock band that never broke up (or otherwise) and made 10 MASTERPIECES. Very good albums, sure, but KC also did so, they are NOT just about the two or three that are frequently talked about. What's wrong with Poseidon, what's wrong with Power to Believe?

A while ago I talked myself into buying A Scarcity of Miracles (mostly because of Mr. Harrison, who played on it). I tell you, Mr. Fripp for real gone fishing like nobody's business. When you have run out of things to say, it's more classy to disband and remain silent.

No, that does not affect the quality of the music. I just find it ridiculous that a band who makes, say two or three great albums and then does nothing for over ten years is considered to be better than a band who makes ten masterpieces without having to split up (I don't mean a certain band in particular, just giving an example) And mind you, it's not that I hate KC or Fripp, (I've got all KC albums), and they're good, but imo not as great as some think.
