LIZARD

I first listened to it with low expectations caused by the critics I saw of this album, my expectations were blown away! Cirkus' a really great open track, Robert Fripp's virtousity is shown while he's literally soloing the entire song! he makes great fills and Gordon Haskell's voice fits really perfect.

The next two tracks can blow your mind the instrumentation is great, then comes my favourite track Lady Of The Dancing Water, I wish It was longer the flute in this is great, it has a relaxing mood, and the lyrics are pure poetry indeed one of KC's best tracks ever recorded, and finally the homonim track, Lizard, this track its pure art, a great mood instrumentation and voice, it doesn't have any weak point, some parts have a classical-feeling, and Jon Anderson's vocal part has a perfect mood.

My favourite Crimson album, really relaxing, poetic, virtuoso, perfect mood, you can also find some jazzy parts that fit really great

5 stars for me!
