...and I should have added the 12th track that isn't actually listed on the CD cover The cover lists just eleven but if you wait long enough after track eleven, By The Hour, has ended another delightful song comes along. A nice surprise when I first discovered it.

Not forgetting, of course, MB's excellent version of Richard Thompson's 'I Misunderstood'.

The best of King Crimson's albums in my view. Even though I've played it more times than I can remember there are parts that still make me jump, even when I know they are coming.

Classic period Cooder and beautifully engineered.

Rush, Grace under Pressure, always felt it was a very under rated album.

Hi Larry, not sure if you are on Facebook, but Sid Smith ran his 1st king crimson record club last Sunday, where he played ITCOTCK. If you are on FB just send Sid a request & he'll add you to the group. It was great fun, and there were some good insights into the making & history of the debut album. Don't know when the next 'Club' night will be, but I suspect Sid will run through the albums in order. He will let us know. Anyone else interested can ask if they wish.

 

These were the discussion ground rules...

Hello and welcome to the Facebook page of the King Crimson Record Club. The only bit of housekeeping I’d like to suggest is that we don’t fill this with youtube (et al) links to KC tracks and albums - we all know what they sound like. OK?  Let’s keep this a spam-free zone reserved for commenting only when we are live playing a disc.
