LP - NEW/NEW - KING CRIMSON, In The Court of the Crimson King - An Observation By King Crimson (Discipline Global Mobile; KCLP1, UK 2010 Reissue, Gatefold, 200 Gram Vinyl Reissue of Original 1969 Stereo Mixes. ), , The group's definitive album, and one of the most daring debut albums ever recorded by anybody. At the time, it blew all of the progressive/psychedelic competition (the Moody Blues, the Nice, etc.) out of the running, although it was almost too good for the band's own good it took King Crimson nearly four years to come up with a record as strong or concise. Ian McDonald's Mellotron is the dominant instrument, along with his saxes and Fripp's guitar, making this a somewhat different-sounding record from everything else they ever did. - 0516282C *** In Stock In Our Crouch End Shop ***
