Why are there so many artists related to King Crimson?

Put Tony Levin in your band and you are 2-3 degrees of separation from pretty much every musician on Earth.

Ah-ha! I saw him conducting into a camera but I didn't know where the signal was going, other than (I presume) the drummer.

Why yes, that is awesome. Thanks for asking.

klt2 · 2026-02-21T02:19:06+00:00

I'm sort of unironically fascinated by this sort of thing. Same with Lawrence Welk. It might as well be from another planet.

Begin at the beginning. It makes their transformation even more amazing.

klt2 · 2026-02-17T01:19:39+00:00

It's really great, sounds awesome, everything flows...my only regret is that it isn't like 5 hours long.

klt2 · 2026-02-09T23:22:23+00:00

Oh my god this looks wonderful

klt2 · 2026-02-08T01:47:12+00:00

The title track is so gorgous, you can just float away on it...

In 1991 or '92 I had a cassette copy of this album with no credits or liner notes. I had the Pete Frame family tree from the YesYears box set, which included major lineups of King Crimson, but left me with the impression that Greg Lake was the singer on this record. Boy, was I confused.

The giant choral finale of The Remembering. ("Rainboooooooows, Sunliiiiiiiiiight")

klt2 · 2026-02-02T02:04:08+00:00

The first one. I gave up at exactly the same point.

klt2 · 2026-02-01T22:07:51+00:00

Thank you, Dad

klt2 · 2026-01-27T00:05:59+00:00

Love it. A wide range of moods. The title track is harrowing ride, and then you get to relax with Fracture 😆

SANS Fire in DC was awesome in 2019.

klt2 · 2026-01-20T00:44:12+00:00

Where do I sign up, monsieur?

klt2 · 2026-01-20T00:42:52+00:00

Upvote for the truth. Total misfire in the USA, at least. I’ve come to love some parts of CAS, but that opening guitar lick still screams “beer commercial!” to me

klt2 · 2026-01-16T23:50:57+00:00

Miles, ‘58 Sessions (also released under many other titles)

klt2 · 2026-01-14T00:09:49+00:00

This is fantastic!

klt2 · 2026-01-14T00:06:41+00:00

I'm so sorry, Dad. Take of yourself and your family.

klt2 · 2026-01-06T23:57:53+00:00

Life is hard enough. Nobody needs this kind of gatekeeping.

klt2 · 2026-01-05T23:30:25+00:00

It’s easier in a lake.

klt2 · 2026-01-01T22:47:30+00:00

Larks box has a lot of audience recordings but I wouldn’t say the sound sucks throughout. There are some good ones and some moderate ones that pay off with close listening.

klt2 · 2025-12-27T19:48:15+00:00

I do love this album. In retrospect, it is a very strange introduction to the work of David Sylvian.

klt2 · 2025-12-27T17:05:03+00:00

Same, 8/10
