Of the "modern" triad, my favorite is "Discipline".  It's one of my favorite
Crimson albums.  The opening hyperkinetic "stick" riff played by Tony Levin
is amazing, as is the interplay between Fripp and Belew (another weird and
very talented guitarist).  Well worth getting.

BTW, when people look at my music collection and wonder about my bizarre
taste in music, I explain that the first album I ever spent my own money on
was "Court" - and I was twelve at the time.  Most people then just shake
their heads and mutter to themselves.

What kind of info can anyone give me on this group?  While browsing at
a local music shop, I ran across about ten copies of about 4-5
different albums.  I'm assuming they're progressive for three reasons: 
Instrumentation listed on one of the albums (rock instruments plus
string orchestra), the date of the earliest release (1976), and they
were on E'G.  Any info would be helpful.

NO!!! NO! NO!

The part in J. Maclaughin's new CD "Que Alegria" is classical indian

music, the sillabes are the names of the notes. 

THe drummer/ percusionist Trilok Gurtu is indian and he is the 'lead'

in this part,  Maclaughin does an outstanding performance of this...

this form of music takes years to master even though it may sound like

demented chanting to ignorant ears.

To get out of your ignorance try rec.music.indian.classical

In article <1992Nov11.134526.10051@vax.oxford.ac.uk>,
Mark Greenwood (bain1@vax.oxford.ac.uk) gives some comments on King
Crimson's albums.

I agree more or less entirely with his comments on their mature period:
Larks' Tongues In Aspic, Starless and Bible Black and Red are excellent
albums, strong on material and well recorded.  Actually I think Red is the
best of the three, not just because it contains "Starless": it is
consistently sure-footed.

Unfortunately the early albums are all more or less awful, except for
Court of the Crimson King which (although it has silly lyrics in a few
places) contains some genuinely good music, however old-fashioned the
style it's played in.  ("Schizoid Man" always struck me as a bit dull,
personally, but the rest is good.)

Sadly the rest are at least half rubbish (or in the case of Islands and
Poseidon, all rubbish).  Earthbound is uninspired as well as dismally
recorded.  Lizard is the best of them, but even that is inconsistent.

The three 80s albums are a different band again, but a good one.  Fripp's
recent solo work is so patchy that these albums are surprising in how
consistently worth-while they are.  Tunes like "Nuages" (from Three of
a Perfect Pair) work very well.

I'm not.  As I recall, there was a bit of a stink when a radio

Christian with a sense of humour (I'm one of the few, I guess)
wouldn't care, but some more fundamentalist types got a little

Not exactly true: there is a Fripp-Sylvian song (title one), and the whole
sound is similar to Exposure: lots of frippertronic and Fripp's
guitar. Moreother, there is someone's spoken words in the end, and
I can bet that this is Fripp (I heard him once). So there is
unique case of Fripp's album with Fripp's vocals (another
one is God Save The Queen where he says something at the
end of the song with trumpets and tourism-socialism-hololalism).

Generally, this album is a joint venture by Sylvian and Fripp
(Nelson's influence is present only on one or two songs).
It is quite unlike stuff Sylvian did on other albums, and
more "frippery" than most of Fripp's 80-ies work, almost
like Exposure and God Save The Queen. Stuff like this he
has done with Gabriel's Here Comes The Flood on Exposure:
take a convencional song, wash it with frippertronic and you get
something genuine to the point of being unlistenable.
Note that Exposure, as Gone To Earth, ends with several 
frippertronic pieces which are very quiet and "ambient".

	There are a few more problems with GG CDs I'd like to note:

1)  If sound-quality is your main criteria, then avoid buying the 
    Line reissues in favour of the Polygram/CBS counterparts.  This
    is rare for imports, but the domestics actually have superior 
    quality.  The Polygram releases are excellent, the CBS        
    "Octopus" is great, while "Three Friends" suffers from too much
    bass (but it is still better than the Line pressing).

2)  The CBS "Octopus" CD is missing the quiet piano intro to "A Cry
    For Everyone", but the Line reissue retains it.

3)  The Line "GG" CD is missing the moog riffs placed between the
    songs.  The Polygram CD retains them.

4)  The CBS "Three Friends" CD has a timing error; it places the  
    start of "Three Friends" in the middle of "Mister Class &     
    Quality".

5)  The "Free Hand" reissue is seriously lacking high-end.  If you
    re-EQ it though it should be fine.

6)  The Castle Communications release of "Playing the Fool" cuts  
    the brief jam of "Sweet Georgia Brown" in order to make       
    everything fit onto a single-CD.  The sound quality is        
    excellent though.

7)  The Capitol "Power" CD has a small timing error at the start of
    "So Sincere", but it won't be obvious unless you try to start 
    playing from the beginning of track 2.

  According to Allan, he and Bill *were* fired from U.K. -- he touches
on this briefly in Christopher Hoard's book, _Reaching For The Uncommon
Chord_. If you believe all the accounts, both Wetton and Jobson were in
agreement on this point. Jobson was supposedly very upset with Holdsworth
because he couldn't/wouldn't play the guitar solos the same way every
night. If you've heard the debut album, you'll understand why this might
upset Jobson.
  At any rate, Bill and Allan went on to record Bruford's _One of a Kind_
shortly thereafter, which is a masterpiece.
  As for U.K. taking "getting used to," this is the one album I always
suggest for progressive rock/hard rock fans who are looking for some
accessable Holdsworth. I think anyone raised on a diet of ELP, Pink Floyd,
Crimson, etc. will have no difficulty with _U.K._.

We could argue if Erasure is progressive or pop (same goes for Depeche), but...
As we all know, Erasure has a nifty CD out of 4 covers of Abba tunes,
aka Abba-esque.  A friend told me about a song he heard on the radio.  It
seems that Erasure put together a bunch of Abba sound alikes and cut a CD
called Erasure-esque containing the equivalent of Abba remakes of Erasure
songs.  Then again, he could have been pulling my leg.  Anyone hear of this?

	As promised, here is some backing info about the release of 'In a 
Glass House' on CD: apparently the owner of the label (previously mentioned
in this forum) located John Weathers, and together they found the masters
and worked with Polygram/WWA to obtain the rights to the album.  Mastering
quality is said to be quite good.  They also remastered 'Power and the Glory'
and included the title track on the CD, which, as others have pointed out,
was previously only available on the two 'best-of' Giant albums ("Pretentious"
and "Giant Steps") which have been long out-of-print.

	Also, I saw some release info on 'The Great Deceiver' which details
a target timeframe of 11/15/92 and also included a track listing.  About half
of the CD appears to be composed of live improvs (including 'Doctor D' and 
other previously-only-available-on-bootleg items).

Since I happen to be listening as I write this, I should mention, for the
sake of younger ELP fans (who weren't listening when they actually
recorded their first few albums) another band. In the mid-70's
a German band, Triumvirate, recorded a few albums. I have one, Spartacus,
on CD. This is as close to an ELP clone as you get. If you like early
ELP, you'll probably like this one. Look for it!
