Where has this been all my life. How did I put this off. Wtf is wrong with me?
I'm so so sorry that I didn't listen to you guys earlier. This is by far the best album of all time. It's just so beautiful. Maybe I should start listening to you more often. So to that end, what should I do as far as digging deeper in to King Crimson? And then what other good prog rock bands/albums should I turn to that I may not have heard [of] before?
