Album 960
King Crimson - Lizard
Year: 1970
The album that introduced me to King Crimson, yet is so different to anything they've done before or after is still my favourite example of their work. Side A comprises of four shortish songs just done brilliantly, and side B is quite possibly the greatest song of all time. The title track is just a massive, perfectly composed piece of brilliance, Jon Anderson does guest vocals, and life is good. Check out my review of the album in my review corner. This is one to listen to when you can't decide between jazz and prog.
3 Choice Tracks: Happy Family, Lady of the Dancing Water, Lizard
