And now for something complete different.....

King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King
1969


I don't remember how I came about getting this album but whoa, what a trip at the time. Who the hell were these guys and how could they sound so out there and heavy at the same time. This was some dark and crazy sh*t. I mean there'd been progressive music before this (Procol Harum and The Moody Blues mainly) but ITCOTCK tossed those guys under the bus and rewrote the entire prog rock book. And with the debut album!
