I'm wondering . . . what Crimson era is everyone's favorite.
I really like what they've been doing lately, but I do have a soft spot for Red.
You've lived with Fripp, really?

I must admit I am a bit sceptic, but intrigued as well of course I've often wondered what he's like in person. He seems like a very serious man.

each one of their albums have their merits, although I must say Lizard and Islands are below par level

He appears very serious and contemplative, which he is to an extent. Though, I've shared a pint or two with him and found a person who liked to 'hang' out and just be an ordinary guy.

King Crimson bassist Boz Burrell is one of my favorite bass players. Here is a song he later on wrote with Bad Company.

^Boz was an absolutely horrible singer for KC. He was so embarrassingly bad, that I wonder if Fripp was going for it purposely? Boz did introduce some very strong groovy rhythm work to the band, that was latter continued by Wetton and Levin.
