I once saw the The Fall support the Magic Band (post Van Vliet). I can sort of see where you're coming from on that one, less so with VdGG.

Never heard this improv before, its beautiful
Really? It's on Starless and Bible Black. It's one of my favourite KC moments. Bill Bruford gets a writing credit even though he does nothing - but the restraint was appreciated.

Thinking about it I suppose at the time I remembered KC at that point for its louder moments rather than its more restrained or subtle.
Anyway talking about things that are more subtle or at least in this case 'hidden'

That guy lives up the road from me, albeit in vastly more salubrious surroundings. I see him and his wife toyah in the pub quite a bit; nice bloke. Never listened to his music before, I always thought it way too 70's prog for me lol but that (post above) sounded ok. Might check it out a bit more!

Bit envious. If you are up to it ask for both of their autographs and send to me plz.
There have been a fair few incarnations/ styles of King Crimson over the years
Prog/jazz with the first four albums In The Court/ In the Wake/Lizard/Islands
LarksTounge/Starless/Red- lot more heavier, muscular rock tinged with jazz styles
Disciple/Beat/Three of a Perfect Pair almost Talking Head style with gamelan rhythms
Their nouveau metal period of Thrakk,/The Construction of Light/Power to Believe
Then there's a whole set of live albums some of which are good compilations showcasing stuff from all albums , probably the best is Meltdown -Live in Mexico

Sad news . I dont think many bands use lyricists these days.

More like *fanny* la rouge!
Yeah that’s the album I got into around the time it came out, just as I was getting into Beefheart. I tried their earlier stuff and didn’t get on with it, and funnily enough never followed their career after Discipline. So it’s pretty much only Discipline I know and love. But what an album. I’d be happy with that as my legacy.
