In The Court Of The Crimson King: 30th Anniversary Edition
When King Crimson releasedIn the Court of the Crimson Kingin 1969, a year after the band formed in London, the world discovered a music that has never gone away. At times, it is a rush of raw energy that mutates into an impossible balance of light and shade. This was the stuff of musicians who had no fear of stepping boldly into the unknown. Led by crafty guitarist Robert Fripp, who later added his own magic to Bowie'sHeroes, King Crimson got big fast with this release.--Paul Clark
