Best 13 KING CRIMSON Songs by Prog Sphere

Straight from the beginning, it is hell of a hard task to pick thirteen songs from King Crimson‘s thirteen studio albums, released in the period from 1969 to 2003. First of all, King Crimson‘s first seven albums are considered as albums that shaped progressive rock and its future. If you ask anyone to name 5 crucial progressive rock bands, you can rest assured that King Crimson will be on the list.

These thirteen songs you will be checking out on the next pages is what I find to be the closest to what King Crimson is about on their thirteen studio albums, what is a bit of a paradox considering how far Mr. Robert Fripp & Co. went in their experimentations on these records.

Feel free to leave a comment with your choices.
