Sometimes the side chick ain’t even a chick it’s King Crimson Red (1974)
amen
Best comment on RUclips
@@bunnysoup6858 amen to that
🤣 🤣 🤣
Real
this album either goes H A R D or makes you cry
no between
I fear tomorrow, I'll be crying...
aaaaand I'll see myself out
Well said! Your words are almost as brilliant as the music.

True story.
@@guidomotshagen7541 it's surely not just in the US
The song that inspired me to become a bass player. Thank you, John Wetton.
This is the right attitude lol, I always see comments like "this inspired me to quit music" which is an oxymoron if I've ever seen one (and sometimes it's a moron on oxy...)
The song that inspired me to join the Marines. Thank you, Robert Fripp.
Hello. I've been a King Crimson fan since I was a teenager. In my “Rock-Metal” playlist, you'll find “PLINE”. It's a tribute (at my small level) to this mythical band. Pleasant discovery. JM.
Starless Gang!
Yep!
Yep!
Gotta say though, I really love Fallen Angel especially with that intro.
Yep!
nah Providence gang
I love that weird broken cymbal that Bill uses on this album
Splash
it's used on Lark's Tongues as well
@@qriofficial1769 No, he didn't have it then. It's a bent cheat regular cymbal (ZYN) he found in the trash. He used it until it broke in half. It is a great sound!
That cymbal is all over Fish out of Water by Chris Squire, too. It may have expired soon after that!
@@redline2115I had no idea it was on any other record! I should give that album a listen.
@@qriofficial1769I think either Muir or Bruford used something else that produced a similar sound. I always thought that cymbal was on Larks too but I guess we were wrong.
this song sounds like a BOSS
level five also sounds like that
@@sphericalcow5900 well I mean I think that's is the entire point of that track.
@@apothecurio i guess that's evident from the name lol
@@sphericalcow5900 I think it’s called that because it’s supposed to be larks’ tongues in aspic part V
This legendary album will be fifty years old next year, and the music will always be timeless.
GOAT album
This sounds ahead of its time if it came out today.
It will come out tomorrow

The monologue for the boss-battle starts at 2:44 .
“I decided to show you…
as a parting gift.
Since this is the end, I’ll fill you in.
What you just witnessed and felt was you in the future.
You from a few seconds from the past witnessed yourself from the future.
This is my King Crimson’s ability.”

Let me guess, jojo part 5
I'm pretty sure Robert Fripp would be a very proficient video game music composer.
@@fbipossamai"Level V" is a perfect example 👾
Shin Megami Tensei vibes
Definitely the heaviest thing in existence in 1974 was Robert Fripp's guitar tone in Red.
His tone was always so distinct, clear yet ragged and aggressive.

Thanks for being a phazon enjoyer btw 🥹
The Bruford masterpiece.
Pretty much any album Bill's involved on is a masterpiece. Just check out One Of A Kind or The Sound of Surprise.
@@Wizuu0274 Bill was firing on all fours for sure.
Full gunz blazing
@Wizuu0274 U.K.
he's not playing the drums on 'red'
he's beating them all to hell!
he's like a more disciplined keith moon. excellent work, by my favorite drummer, ever.
At this point the tensions in the band were pretty high and it seems pretty evident in their sound. It gets straight up ugly and unhinged on a few occasions, and that's one of the best things you can hope for from a band like that. They're all so incredibly proficient that when they freak out, it's still locked in and precise, the perfect kind of controlled chaos. Also Fripp (who wanted to take a year sabbatical to join the Bennet Institute in Sherborn) wanted Ian Macdonald to rejoin the band in his absence but when his idea was shot down, he disbanded the group in September 1974).
The band UK formed from its ashes shortly after Fripp left. That first UK album is really special too. Holdsworth and Jobson were an excellent complement to the stellar Wetton/Bruford rhythm section.
something to note is the sheer amount of guitar overdubbing in this album, which was pretty antithetical to the band's philosophy at the time (they had previously been trying to capture the live experience in the studio, and most S&BB was recorded live, of course)
@@beltube which is funny because this is the album they considered to have captured their live intensity
There were no tensions among the musicians. The only tension existed inside Fripp's mind, who was more interested in pursuing a certain spiritual path than in going on the music business.
Fripp has stated that this is the only album they've released that comes close to replicating the power of their live shows. FWIW.
I think I agree. They are a different beast live.
Truly ahead of its time. Math rock long before math rock even existed.
いきなりレッドゾーンから始まるヘヴィなサウンドの緊張感がたまらない
How many masterpieces in only one album!!!
Every song except "Trio", which is an improvisation... Quite a short album, but a masterpiece, like you said.
@@aakkoin that’s from starless and bible black
@@arman2774 Uh, that's right... "Providence" is the improv on Red, I believe. It's exciting and fun and scary to listen to, but wouldn't call it a masterpiece.
@@aakkoinbecause it works as a prologue to starless
5 is the answer
the best album hands down.
yeah, i have 1387918273981 favorite albums, but Red is on the high top...
I was 19 in 1989 and a friend played this and Lark's Tongue for me. I had heard In the Court... and liked it, but was never motivated to check out the rest of the band's material. Red hooked me. 32 years later I am still obsessed with this album.
I can relate, after hearing red this week and owning in the court for at least a decade. Never got to this one. Sorry I ever waited.
For sure 👍
Gotta love that baking sheet sound in the drums
That's a crappy off-brand (Zilket?) ride with a bent up edge he found in a dustbin. Put it on a stand, cranked it down and magic!
Distinctive, ain't it?
Red Gang!

When it comes to rock music, this is cream of the crop

Red.
This album and this song are of indescribable beauty.
Turning 50 this year!! I bought this when it came and is still played regularly, on by Technics direct drive turntable.
One of the Greatest Progressive Rock Bands to ever exist. 🌴🌴
Who would you put over this?
THE greatest Progressive Rock band.
@@christopherjobin-official7440 Right on bro ✌️
Burford slays me every time! The man doesn't put a foot (or a hand) wrong
I agree, but I don't think he's a man; he's inhuman.
He didnt like this number at all, man 😂.. so he was WRONG :)) It took Wetton to pursuade Fripp (indifferent at the time, not caring at all about anything Red) to put it on the album.. get your facts right...
This is basically a math rock/post-hardcore song. It's insane
Pure art! I cannot compare to any other thing I have listened before
So dark, so evil. Yet so good and beautiful
Red song can be anything you want it to be
Can’t wait to see them today in Austin. Gonna be so cool
Edit: they were absolutely amazing
-50 for that JoJo pfp but +100 for actually commenting something about the band itself
@@xavierorangearms635 Meh, everyone that loves this band had to learn about them somehow.
Shout out to Children of Men.
@@Level_Eleven Yeah I know, I actually learned about KC from JoJo too lol
@@Level_Eleven YUP
Who was in the band?
Mr. Fripp can take pride at how many metal bands of stature from garage to stadiums that have at least one song begun with the One More Red Nightmare opening chords. And here's hoping Fripp & Eno comes after. I want forty five minutes of the Heavenly Music Corp.
unfortunately No Pussyfooting hasn't been released yet :(
It just released on youtube a day or two back
Guess what
Unironically JoJo really got me listening to some great tunes
Their soundtrack curator has impeccable taste
Yes man
Тебя не загоняли палками за упоминания ДжоДжо? Я удивлён.
It's weird that I've been listening to prog since 2017. It was just that I didn't knew the genre.
Same
I miss this kind of prog rock. I should get a ticket to the Holmdel show.
RED GANG RISE UP
my favorite song on my favorite album. Hearing this the first time just.. blew me away.
My absolute favorite KC track, and my all time favorite KC line-up!
I always saw this album as a redux of In the Court of the Crimson King, The album flows in a very similar manner.
Most of their albums have this structure
Heavy riff centric opener ->
Soft ballad ->
Side one epic closer ->
Weird instrumental ->
Final epic
It's a very logical logical album structure and very listener friendly, it's what bands in other genres use aswell.
@@arvaakuka8568 discipline
@@ash_11117
Elephant Talk and Frame by Frame- High energy openers with cool riff
Matte Kudusai- soft ballad
Indiscipline-Epic side 1 closer
Thela Hun Ginjeet- High energy somewhat instrumental
Sheltering Sky-Weird experimental instrumental
Discipline- Epic closer
I could cry but rejoice gets in the way of all that! What a f]**^

Absolutely great track, one of my favourite by King Crimson!
Yeah, the power of KC concentrated in 6 plus minutes... nothing better
Masterpiece
Felicitaciones, maravillosa canción. Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷.
Rarisisimo por donde se lo mire....´´RED´´ debe ser al mejor album de rock progresivo....un abrazo MARTIN
Have had this for years and years on CD, and, last month, bought it on vinyl (the 200 grams), and it sounds amazing 👍🏻
I still love it as i did from the very start, it is an albuk in a league of it's own 🌟
The 200g is great, I got it for Christmas last year and was literally just listening to it! There is nothing like Starless on a good audio setup (or the rest of the album for that matter)
@@tenzinsmith7991 Very true, the vinyl is very quiet, and sounds very good and warm 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I'm from the vinyl age... Digital sound is disappointing always, even when I do the remixing myself.
(I wish I had access to the Beatles' mastertapes...)
I've had almost all the KC vinyls from the early 2000's and the remasters put up on youtube are absolutely insane production value. It's across the board better.
This is one of the best records of all time
This was my introduction to King Crimson. By the time I had no idea what was filling my ears and positively poisoning my brain, but now, I'm throughfully thankful of listening to it and shaping my music taste forever around it.
I dreamt about needing this.. now living that dream! KK nice!
KC EVEN!
Not my favorite KC album getting released on RUclips, oh wait....
THATS MY FAVORITE KC ALBUM GETTING RELEASED ON RUclips LETTTTSSSSS GOOOOOOOO!
This album is seriously so heavy for 1975, I honestly think of this album as a somewhat proto-heavy metal album IMO
Eh, Black Sabbath's music was heavier, for example here's Under The Sun, which came out 3 year prior to Red. And this was Sabbath's 4th album, they've had plenty of heavy tunes prior. Heavy metal was long formed before Red. ruclips.net/video/ss7fcym5xZE/видео.html
@@christopherbishop2055 Yes but still for a fucking prog rock album, this is still fucking heavy.
1975 also had Sabotage by Black Sabbath, quite heavier than this one.
Idk about Sabbath being heavier than Crimson in general, but they probably do have songs heavier than this song. It's a different kind of heavy though, it's like proto death metal vs proto djent lol (but without any demon vocals or djenting)
Edited for grammar lol
@@newusernamehere4772 Sabbath were heavier than King Crimson. No fucking doubt. But that is not what King Crimson were aiming for anyway.
Eeee takes me back to my misspent youth in the 80s, this was one of my favourite crimson albums
A great album by the best crimso lineup.
King Crimson is the best!!
There was no guitar recorded like this in 1974... thats why i fell for it ;)
Excelente! John Wetton brilhante como sempre.
Wow.... What an incredible album?! I'd only heard Court of Crimson before this and just thought I'd come and have a listen after hearing a couple of musician's speak highly about it. I'm 46 years old an avid record collector and there's not much that I'm astounded by these days on a first listen, but this album is the exception. It's a masterpiece.
I saw King Crimson at Newcastle City Hall in October 71
GREAT BAND
In 1971? I'm almost jealous - I wish I could travel back in time to those golden years of music.
It was then quite generally expected King Crimson would surpass Pink Floyd, but Fripp decided on another path - and he was right.
Number two on my list of best albums of all time
What’s number one?
@@jbasti227 Black Sabbath - Paranoid. What's your number one?
I think this album is in my Top 10 of all time. First is Demon Days by Gorillaz.
@@Dan_Metalhead Sabotage > Paranoid
@@guitaristssuck8979 hell fucking no
One of my all-time favorite albums! I've lost track of how many times I have listened to it...and will do so to my dying day!
Imagine putting this on for the first time in 1974 and hearing that intro...
hearing it even today blows me away
Gracias por tu Energía
Gran King Crimson.💎💎💎🎼🎼🎼🕪
I will keep my american self up just watch these premieres
more power to you
30 years ago i found this LP in the castle's attic in France. Thank you Lucien for making incredible journey possible :)
It's about damn time they uploaded this to RUclips. Fucking KILLER song! 💯
ah yes, the best king crimson album
For me one of the Best rock albums ever.
One of the G3 tours on CDMX was with mr. Fripp and he end that show with Vai and Satrianni playing red theme, my favourite Crimson song.
It was orgasmic!!!
Frippy Chan! Dunno how many sets of speakers, I went through playing these guys on a daily basis! At least half a dozen. Drove the folks mad, that’s when you know you scored a hit lp
When progressive rock and jazz makes love
I will always remember that I discovered King Crimson the year they disbanded. In 1974.
By the time that I discovered all their records, they just vanished.
I love particularily the outfit with Cross, Wetton & Brufford.
But also the one which did "Islands" & "Earthbound".
LOVE TO WHOEVER IS CRIMSON ON THIS EARTH §
Wow!!, good sound, good vibes!.
once again these get released quite early for me to hear them premiere but I really appreciate the albums being uploaded on youtube since youtube blocked the comments in the automatically generated ones
Este álbum e choque elétrico na cabeça de1000 watts expressiva e dinâmica capacidade de tocar instrumentos
Super excited!
Bill Burford is awesome.
Muchas gracias Roger fry lo poco que se de construir guitarras me lo enseñaste túa través de un libro que publicaste hace años en colaboración
The best power trio in history, a close second is the Adrian Belew power trio.
Cross, Fripp, Wetton, and Bruford on the brink of becoming a superpower. Why did it have to stop?
They genuinely could’ve become one of the most popular bands in the UK and Europe if they had toured the album but they split up because they didn’t know where they were going as a band
They could've at least done a farewell tour and split up afterwards, though.
mcdonald was about to rejoin the band too...
Where can you go from here, from Red?
Red, sounds intresting, probably brand new song!
Like 45 years
Omg, I'm so excited!!!⚘🤘❤
I love how Araki introduced me to King Crimson, which led to me searching for King Crimson, thus discovering King Crimson and becoming a fan of King Crimson.
this album goes hard!
The strongest line-up in KC history
According to John Wetton, the cellist on this track is Mark Charig. Why he was never credited for it is unknown.
EDIT: It's actually Julian Lloyd Webber. Apparently this has been known for years, but it wasn't widespread until relatively recently.
You are mistaken. He is credited just look in the RUclips info on this page for this video and it plainly states the credit for him as well as all the others who participated in this album
@@BILLMCELWEE He's credited for the cornet, but not the cello.
In Sid Smith's book, everyone says they couldn't recall the name of the session player who played on this track. He showed up, played it through twice and then left. Charig is mentioned, Wetton is also listed as a possibility, but no one really remembers (obviously Wetton would have remembered if it was himself).
@@beckoning-chasm damn so this random ass guy shows up plays this cool ass bass solo 2 times and then leaves never to be remembered by anyone there
I think the cellist is believed to be Julian Lloyd Webber.
Owned it on vinyl since it was 1st released
50 years later, still heavy as a MF
Magic, Wonderfoul!
I started listening to them because of jojo and have fallen in love with there music
sup poser
sup millennial
Un brano che è da dio grazie amico
The fripp solo at the beginning i.e. the studio version solo is always the most powerful one among numerous live and cover versions of this song. Even Belew plays this excellently as well, the studio version wins.
Can't wait for the PREMIERE.......... in 1974
Pure Prog Metal! I love it, Mr. Fripp! 🤘🏻
i owe these cats for a show i got in usin stealth. thanx brothers! GREAT SHOW!!!❤️
I only heard/bought this album 23 or so years ago. I like prog. I like heavy, British metal.
Wetton e seu baixo missel
cant wait to listen to this new crimson piece!!
they are perfect three🤣🤣🤣💕
Si lo tenia todo de king crimson y vais con misterios tenia 16 años y tengo 65 y toco musica de ellos y me apunte y nadie hablaba de ellos
Claro.
Grande gravaçao em dvd audio este violao celo e divino
この頃は3人とも仲が悪かったらしいけど、それでいてこんな傑作作ってしまうのだから凄いね。お互い顔も見たくないと言うので、ジャケットは別々に撮影した写真を組み合わせたようですね。
