| I know there are a lot more I could put on the list but I decided to go with these three from the John Wetton era. |

All great, I'll go with Fracture. I had LTiA Pt2 as my ring tone for ages. ------------- Ian Host of the Post-Avant Jazzcore Happy Hour on Progrock.com https://podcasts.progrock.com/post-avant-jazzcore-happy-hour/ |

Come to think of it - King Crimson are pretty darned good at this instrumental-thing. Fracture for me. But hey Sailor's Tale, The Devil's Triangle, The Talking Book, Trio... and the rest are all spectacular too. |

All these are great and I agree with the Fracture crowd. Some more brilliance to be found in The Sheltering Sky, Satori in Tangier, and Industry (as a Discipline phase KC fan I've got to mention these). |

All three masterpieces, all three heavier than a really heavy thing! I'm going with Red, for those sweet dissonant harmonies. LTIA 2 shouldn't be counted out. Check out the live version from the Providence RI 1974 show. ------------- Porg for short. My love of music doesn't end with prog! Feel free to discuss all sorts of music with me. Odds are I'll give it a chance if I haven't already! :) |

Extremely close call between Fracture and Red, but I had to go with the latter. Such a fantastic way to open my favorite KC album ------------- Take me down, to the underground Won't you take me down, to the underground Why oh why, there is no light And if I can't sleep, can you hold my life https://www.youtube.com/@CocoonMasterBrendan-wh3sd |

I love how Fracture opens with a guitar riff (perhaps in an augmented scale?) that has a certain openness like water dripping off a cavern wall. This repeating arpeggiated style, often with odd time signatures, would come to play in several of Fripp’s works, including with Andy Summers. When I’m in the mood for music that is a bit off-kilter (in a good way!), I like this style. The other pieces, closer to metal in guitar tone, are great too. But, today I’m going with Fracture. |
