Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson is known for being a bit prickly at times and his first reaction upon hearing Robert Fripp's unique style of guitar-playing for the first time was, 
"You're playing all the wrong notes, mate!" - just like Eric Morecambe with Andre Preview in the video below. Tongue

It seems that I neglected this topic before (unless I made a mistake). I used to listen to King Crimson quite a lot around the time I joined this site, and then for years it became on and off, and recently I've come back to KC in a big way. It's a band I have really liked since I first got to know it quite well in the early 2000s, and now appreciate more than ever.

This order today (did top seven for the first seven classic albums, but of course one would just add my top five to the tally).

1. "Lizard"
2. "Starless"
3. "Islands"
4. "In the Wake of Poseidon"
5. "Epitaph"
6. "Larks' Tongues in Aspic, Part One"
7. "Starless and Bible Black"
Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

Starless has double the points of 2nd place... well deserved

1. Lizard
2. Starless
3. Sailor's Tale
4. Cirkus
5. In The Wake Of Poseidon
6. Fracture
7. The Court of the Crimson King

^ Sorry, I had already posted this. Interestingly, I picked the exact same order as before.
 

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.
