A couple of you REDHEADS (King Crimson Freaks... ugh!) really enjoyed Islands. Excellent choice, but I failed to see where anyone noted that the bassist Boz later wound up in Bad Company, with a last name too. Some noted the early album, McDonald & Giles. There was a less well known precursor album. I believe the name was Giles, Giles & Fripp. It had the two Giles in the title, memory doesn't serve me as well with Fripp. It stands to reason though, the Giles were bass and drums on parts of In The Wake of Poseidon. I don't think that anyone mentioned that both Bruford and Wetton went on to UK. They had a fiddle player too for a while. Was he David Cross? Peter Sinfield wrote some lyrics for at least one ELP tune. He may have also had an album out a la Robert Hunter (the Grateful Dead lyricist). This is/was one of the more interesting postings in the last few days. Keep up the good work. Remember, if you ask six different people what their favorit King Crimson album was you get six different albums. Good band. floyd@brl.arpa
