Have spent some time listening to
Lark's Tongues In Aspic for the first time today; it's still early days obviously but it's clear - I can understand now why people criticise Yes' albums of this era of falling short of KC's work (stupidly had not realised Bruford was in the band at this point).
I love the instrumentation, the violin and Fripp's acoustic guitar. It's refined and ambitious on it's own terms, a refreshing lack of grandiosity...
The guitar in 'Easy Money' is really something, brings my impressions of Fripp's style full circle - he knows when to hold back.
Really should read your review now BooBoo, forgive this humble Crimson noob
