King Crimson - Red: Review

Classic Rock And Prog Albums

Peter, Shaun and Tim discuss their opinions of the seventh studio album by King Crimson, Red. The discussion includes: the band’s incredible musicianship, the relative merits of the albums in the Mark III period, whether the group sounds better with or without violin, and whether Starless is the greatest King Crimson track of all time. Also, can Robert Fripp play the blues? Does Phil Collins sound like a seal? Does time literally slow down when the band is doing an over-long improvisational passage? And what would it sound like if cardboard could sing?
