Posted: Thu Nov 18, 2010 1:53 pmKing Crimson is the preeminent prog rock band of all time. This song was from their first album released in 1969. They skillfully blended elements of rock, jazz and classical and produced many great albums but were not a commercial success. I'm going to record a cover of their song "Red" in a few weeks.

Starless and Bible Black is a classic. "Lament" was great.

I know that I should know them, yet no songs are ringing a bell. I like the name King Crimson.

Aside from "Court of the Crimson King" and "21st Century Schizoid Man" I can't think of anything that got any airplay.

When Crimson reformed with Adrian Belew they became much more popular, and of course are more popular overseas than here. Music for the thinking man thankfully goes right over most heads.
