Yes, I love it... The title track is amazing ... I really like the percussion work on it... But Lizard is as good as this one, can't decide and these two are the only KC albums I own...yet, there will be more, for sur ------------- If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear...

Easayy Monnneyyyyyyyyyy!! My fav track from KC. This version of KC was the best. They were playing something so raw, complex and powerful. The music remains fresh sounding and vital. |

| Good album, but IMO "In the Court of" is their undisputed masterpiece. I'd put it fourth behind ITCOTCK, Red, and Lizard. It has some great moments, but too my ears it has too many dead spots and is not very unified. Still a dam |

Some of their best stuff, imo, some very heavy prog rock, sich as the LTiA parts, as well as Book of Saturday, a great piece of mellow guitar work, along with Easy Money, and one of my few favorite pieces, Exiles, always loved that one. ------------- 'This is a local shop, there's nothing for you here' |
