Larks' Tongues in Aspic

Command Studios
King Crimson’s 1973 album marked a radical departure from everything they’d previously done. With guitarist Robert Fripp as the only survivor from the original line-up, the new line-up featuring the heat-seeking work of ex-Yes drummer Bill Bruford and the virtuoso bass work of ex-Family bassist John Wetton, who also took on vocals here, presented a breath-taking tour of killer riffs, jaw-dropping dynamics, and poignant ballads. Featuring pastoral Vaughan Williams-style interludes from violinist David Cross, this line-up also embraced a spikier sound that was both willing to rock out, as on the unhinged complexities of LTIA Pt2, as well as explore and experiment with unorthodox textures and atmospherics thanks to eccentric percussionist Jamie Muir.

Crimson's greatest studio album
Ever since I heard the riffs off Larks Part I I knew this was my favorite Crime album. It's difficult for me to put into words how much I love this album. It's just perfect, that's all I can say.

Having listened to pretty much every single KC album but this, I approached it with caution. After all, if there was an album that (according to lots of fans) could surpass ITCOTCK and Red, was this one. How could it live up to the hype? Easy, just put your stereo at max volume, push the play bottom and let Fripp and company do their magic.
