Yep very interesting . 

Apparently Greg Lake only got into the band because Fripp wanted a good looking front man … and man he was good looking going by the band photo in the article!

I do like this quote

Greg Lake: “It fired the starting pistol on progressive rock… I think there were other bands that you could also credit with bringing about a new attitude in music: Pink Floyd were one band that brought new stuff along. So I wouldn’t say Crimson were the only band to bring new things along, but we were certainly fundamental and important in the progressive movement. The album provoked a lot of changes.”

These stories are brilliant, nothing like this happens anymore with music today. You could write a book just about the album cover and how it came to be.

Hi,

Now if we could take some of those comments (including RF saying that KC is not "progressive" ... hahaha!) and clean up the "reviews" that this album has on PA that destroy the idea of the value of this album ... then we will be getting somewhere!

It was a valuable moment ... at a great time ... and lately, I have been listening to Ginsburg go around London and doing the music thing with PF and SM and others where they all lived, ate, slept and all that, and somehow, all of a sudden the words of "I talk to the Wind" stand up even taller, even if they are much simpler than most poetry, but still as valuable. 

It's a funny thing ... if you read Ginsburg, it does not click ... as well and loudly as he does when you hear him read his own poetry, when all of a sudden there is fire and ice flying all over the words in your imagination ... some of it, you can catch in that "Tonite We All Love in London" ... but progressive folks don't usually like to compare to other arts ... to see where some inspiration lies ... you don't think a Ginsburg would not be at Hyde Park at the time? Look at all the A list'rs on that film, and you know they all were there! Sadly ... it means nothing to most single lovers and top ten folks! Time is a waste! Ashes to ashes and dust to dust ... screw the rest!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!
