So much star power gone to waste here. Fortunately it did nothing to derail the careers of those involved.
No keepers. Nothing to see here. Move along.

Again, it’s King Crimson – just play it and marvel. I originally bought this as an 8-track and after listening to it the first time immediately returned it because there were so many warbly sounds I thought the tape was defective. Of course its replacement was just as warbly and in all the same places.
Brain-numbing power (Cirkus) and lots of fun (Happy Family, Indoor Games) makes this one my second favorite Crimson 1.x album. My apologies to the Boston Store in Massena for being a such pain in the ass.
