"What if we made Fush Yu Mang but every song is significantly worse?"
Early King Crimson is so good that even what's seen as their more forgettable work is incredible. This album is often seen as "In The Court Of The Crimson King... But worse" and while that is reductive, and disrespectful... and true- I still adore it for what it is.
