Nice pick, one of the only KC albums I like. I feel like those first three tracks are among the best things they've ever recorded, as they not only rock but feel more like songs than most of their material.

^ Maybe side A, but side B doesn't seem song-based and they have plenty of songs that rock. Which are the other ones you like, by the way?

I really like The Power to Believe, and I find Red decent. King Crimson is just too art's for art's sake for me usually, plus I can't stand Robert Fripp. However, when they do something that suits my tastes, it's great.

^ I think that about many bands but not KC. I presume you're considering Sinfield's lyrics on their first albums when you say that?

I've never really paid attention to many of their lyrics, so no. I just don't like the directionless improvisations, songs that go on for too long without keeping things interesting, and there are rarely any guitar riffs, vocal parts, or much else that stand out to me. As far as eclectic rock goes, Gentle Giant is who I always go to. I've always found them a lot more satisfying and emotionally-charged than KC.

^ Very nice !! Originals ? I'm not familiar with the Armageddon, but the Gravy Train is pretty cool. Norman's voice is harsh, but the music has a Tull flavour and very well done. Quite rare, these 2.

^^^ I don't have Gravy Train's first album on original vinyl but I have the other three.
Too bad Armageddon only put out one album. A great line-up with Martin Pugh (Steamhammer), Bobby Caldwell (Captain Beyond, Johnny Winter And), Keith Relf (Yardbirds, Renaissance) and Louis Cennamo (Colosseum, Steamhammer, Renaissance).

Hey guys, my latest instrumental prog album just came out on VINYL! It's red wax in a nice gatefold sleeve.
The music is made with guitars, drums and vintage Nintendo systems like Gameboys and the NES. Definitely something a little different, but vinyl lovers will dig! http://michaelzucker.bandcamp.com/album/pixel-perfect-2 |

I love 'Perfect Life' off this one. And I guess this album has reasonable audio quality. Lol it's bloody beautiful. Sweet Jesus it almost sounds as good as Peter Gabriel's UP album. |

Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣
