  • 21ST CENTURY SCHIZOID MAN including MIRRORS
    (Fripp, Lake, McDonald, Giles, Sinfield)
    Cat's foot iron claw
    Neuro-surgeons scream for more
    At paranoia's poison door
    Twenty first century schizoid man.
    Blood rack barbed wire
    Politicians' funeral pyre
    Innocents raped with napalm fire
    Twenty first century schizoid man.
    Death seed blind man's greed
    Poets' starving children bleed
    Nothing he's got he really needs
    Twenty first century schizoid man.

      It surprises me that this was from 1969, there was nothing really this technical at the time besides maybe Zappa, but still he wasn't as heavy as this was.
      Edit: When I say "technical" I mean switching time signatures on a whim, speeding up and slowing down at random, super complex song structures and guitar lines, noise coming in-and-out of nowhere, can only recall Zappa and some jazz musicians doing this stuff at the time, but these guys merged it with hard rock and turned it into something new. It was like heavy prog.

    I first heard of King Crimson and this album from a joke on "The Venture Brothers" ( a criminally underrated show). Dr. Venture is showing one of his sons, Dean, his collection of progressive rock records. It's what he listens to to get in the right mood to science. Dean picks up one, asks what it is, and his dad says "You're not ready to dance in The Court of the Crimson King! At this stage in your development, that will make you an evil scientist." So they start off with YES.

    It still blows my mind to this day that this song was made in 1969 and it packs a hell of a punch, from the vicious sax playing of Ian McDonald to the jaw dropping guitar work of Robert Fripp to Greg Lake's smokey vocals. King Crimson had it all and their music was a perfect blend of jazz and rock all rolled into one but still sounding fresh. This band were light years ahead of the game and they were only just getting started.

He was gutted when you took it down, he played only a few seconds of it in a top 10 best rock albums video, and showed the cover. Give him the exclusive rights. He doesnt do it for money but for education on what is really good music, and it will get you a couple of thou new young fans for sure.
    And he does things like most original guitar sound" and i am sure this solo would feature...stuff like that...educational...

      Actually, Robert, if you do read this, I'll second the motion. Mr Rick Beato's videos are purely appreciative and are made for entirely educational purposes. He taught jazz guitar at University when he was younger and later became a producer. His channel, called Everything Music, is dedicated to celebrating the technical aspects of creating, and the emotional impacts of, many modern classics, such as your track above. Indeed the album "In The Court Of The Crimson King" featured in his "Top 20 Best Debut Albums Ever!" recently. Unfortunately he was unable to delve deeply into a discussion about the hows and whys because the small 9 second excerpt he chose to edit into his video (as a reference) was blocked by youtube on behalf of your management company.
      I can understand that but I do believe that in this instance it would have been apropos to an even fuller appreciation of the track and its place in the history of music to have allowed Rick this one pass. In fact, to reiterate the point above; I believe it would be of service the the legacy of King Crimson to allow him to produce one of his "What makes this song great?!" videos about any of the King Crimson library.
      I for one would be delighted to watch it!

    In October of 1969 an old friend brought over the album to hear for the first time. After the initial shock from the disturbing cover, I placed the record player needle on the vinyl, and was completely knocked off of my chair at what I heard, which was not like any music before it. Even at 15 years old, I knew this was an important musical statement. And from that moment on, and to this day I become a prog rock fan. And the album will be a milestone masterpiece of music forever.
