King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King

[Dinkleberry]

I've been meaning to pick up this album for a couple of years now, and I was in a small rock record shop in a small town the other day and saw it, then bought it. It is very good. It is prog rock, mostly quite accessible (on this album at least).

For me, it was like listening DSOTM for the first time (although this came out before... see Wikipedo for more info).

Here is the album cover (which is a painting, done by an oldschool programmer):

Yesss.

 

[Cornerstone]

Amazing album by an amazing band.

 

[Dalamari]

Great album, can't say the rest of King Crimsons music can stand up to it...

 

[Dax]

This.

I loved hearing them in Children of Men.
The album is great, the rest of their work is meh.
