3 stars This is the seminal moment when prog was launched but other bands would do things much better. Every KC record has extenside drivel and in this album it is the last ten minutes of Moonchild. I wish Fripp had put all his avant garde work in one multi disk production rather than spacing them out over every album and frauding the buyer . There are great moments in all five tracks but in the end it is too extended with too little quality material. High marks for innovation but it is way out of it's leage in the top 10 of prog or even the top 100.
