Episode 22: King Crimson, "In the Court of the Crimson King"
I'm thrilled to share today's album. It's a favorite for many, and for good reason - it contains some of the most beautiful and affecting music in history. In this episode, I break down the genre of progressive rock in an easy-to-understand way (I hope!) and discuss why King Crimson is the embodiment of the genre. We'll talk about how "In the Court of the Crimson King" became one of rock's defining albums and why this scorched-earth commentary on the future of mankind is just as relevant now as in 1969.
