I love Belew as well.  I've seen him in concert with the Adrian Belew Power Trio twice now and he's been great both times.  All three "Side" records were fantastic, and several of his albums with King Crimson are undoubtedly prog classics.

Lately I'm getting into Belew's voice. IMO he's always regarded to little attention as a singer, but I think he is outstanding.
The best you can is good enough...

I love that album.....  does anyone have a problem with Wetton's vocals on that album in particular.  He is not the greatest vocalist ever.. but I didn't think they were bad on it.  I know Raff thinks they are subpar on that one.


I LOVE Wetton's voice!  He's great on Book of Saturday and Exiles, and pretty good on Easy Money.  His best is probably The Night Watch, One More Red Nightmare, or Starless, but he is still excellent throughout LTiA.

Oh yes, considering how much metal youve reviewed. It's the most emotional metal release of the year. You also need Gazpacho and Symphony X

back on topic, The Great Deceiver shows the band being downright unsettling with their heavy jazz. IMHO the only band of the 70s that was any heavier was the mighty Sabbath.

I certainly hope the new SGM, Amaran's Plight, and Explosion in the Sky is on that list

amazon.com is good place, but if you want The Great Deceiver (and you should because it is the most progressive live album of all time), go to http://www.dgmlive.com/shop.htm It's cheaper here (a lot cheaper, and it ships to you faster).

There's such a vast live discography from them that I don't really know what to buy.

^ I love his vocals, especially on Red, but they aren't that hot on LTIA. Although I actually think the flaws in his performance improve "Book Of Saturday"

Lizard doesn't get nearly enough talk. It's not my favorite KC album but I think its the one that impressed me the most. I think Fripp's playing on it is his best.
