[net.music] King Crimson/Long music pieces

Ken,
     Another good King Crimson song (?) is Court of the Crimson King.  Suitable
music for the Art Rock era - long, complex and rather good with 300 watts and
the lights down low.  By the way, when Bill Bruford left Yes in 1973-4, King
Crimson felt that he was finally ready to play the kinds of music that they
played.  Arrogance to be sure, but a statement of what they were interested
in doing.  Of course it didn't hurt that Bruford felt that Close to the Edge
was superb, he did not want to have to "top" all of his work EVERY TIME.
