4 stars The most underrated disc of KC. Formentera is a good song, with precise development. A sailor's Tale is a cool song (the ending with the a super-fast strummed guitar is one of my favorites moment of Fripp, like the intro of The Night Watch of SaBB). The Letters use a lot of dynamics, Ladies of the Road is ok. Song of the Gulls is a little overrated... And the final "Islands" is the one most beautiful songs of King Crimson: the melody is incredible and the way the music progress.... always this songs give me schillings on my spine. Take a look at this disc. Listen carefully and you won't be disappointed.
