Yes, it became true as their what is considered their 3 most celebrated albums (especially on this site), ItCotCK, Larks' Tongues & Red, will be available on iTunes. the 40th Anniversary editions to be exact, the bonus tracks as well as the booklet that comes with it each release. all in digital format. just thought to let you guys know that. man, this band has been getting into alot of social media lately. Twitter, YouTube, and now iTunes?!? i hope they get to Spotify soon if this is the case. copyright is starting to get to us on Youtube as the songs are going down one by one. at least the ones that are the most popular on it.

Fripp will never allow Crimson on Spotify, or anything similar.  Just google Fripp and GrooveShark for more detail

and good for him...those services screw musicians

They should have put their music on iTunes a long time ago--it's a way for all new generations of listeners to get turned on by their music---as much as I love CD's their time may be about up and not everyone wants to order on Amazon.

Those 3 albums you mention are available on iTunes on Sept 30 for 11.99 each. You can't buy an individual song like many albums you have to buy the whole thing.Smile

Maybe a Fripp marketing technique to get more people to buy it.LOL

more specifically Easy Money was marked as "explicit". idk why that is myself. another song, 5:15, was also marked explicit and i didn't know why for a long while, but it probably has to do with some of its sexual lyrics. judgmental b*****ds. for the former, i think its the final verse but of course i may be mistaken.

If you check the lyrics for Easy Money there are mentions of licking fudge a judge and a minor.

Quite a contentious lyric these days...

Fabulous music though.

^ Which lyric is that? The lines are all too cryptic for me.

General Comment
When played live the 2nd verse goes thusly:

Well I bargained with the Judge,
but that b*****d wouldn't budge
when they caught me licking fudge
but they never told me you were a minor

If it was sung live, what's the "E"-for-explicit mark doing on a studio album?
(Apologies if I ticked the vulgarity filter.)
