Greg Lake had such a distinctive voice. Epic Epitaph!!!
One of the greatest songs about the threat of nuclear war
King Crimson! Great surprise to see a reaction of them. Loved listening to them in 1972 when I first came across them. I think they began in 1969. Greg Lake, on bass, went on later to be a founder of Emerson Lake and Palmer. His DNA is all over this song.
The strings that you heard were produced by a Mellotron. That was a keyboard instrument that produced orchestral sounds.
Jimi Hendrix saw King Crimson in 1969 in London and said it was the greatest group he had ever heard.
I feel that Greg Lake had the finest voice in Rock Music…and he was a great writer, acoustic guitarist and bassist too.
The sax is HEART WRENCHING...🎉
Saw them live in Long Beach, CA in 1972. I was 20 years old then, I am 71 now. Still love this music!
A thousand years from now, music lovers will be talking about this song. Epic masterpiece is understatement
Please listen to the ORIGINAL from the Court of the Crimson King album-
this one is not worse, maybe better
@@egorovvladimir7304go listen to the original, then realize the mistake you have made
@@Dragon_named I've known it for 30 years
The timing is messed up somehow in this. Vocal is repeatedly getting ahead of the beat
PROG!!!!!!!!!!!
While this is a good version,the original from the album Court of the crimson king is fuller and the use of the mellotron more intense and makes the song even sadder.There are also some background guitar parts inthe original that are left out of this version. IMO The album version is a better version .Hope you give it a listen and compare the two.
Among the greatest LPs ever recorded!
In the winter of 1969 I bought tickets to a concert. King Crimson was the "warm up" band. To this day I can't tell you who was the top billed band I actually bought the tickets to see. That's how blown away I was at seeing KC for the first time!
RIP Greg Lake - his vocals were always superb!
Excellent, no one reacts to this amazing song from arguably the first Prog Rock Album. Great tune and lyrics that haunt, that entire album is worth a review, tremendous stuff from Robert Fripp, Greg Lake and co. It does not get much better than this. I had this album in 1969, it helped change music for me and for the better. Unreal year for music, try the title track, you will love it. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
Wrong version
Id argue The Moody Blues album 'days of future passed' two years earlier was closer to the first
Amazing song, loved your reaction to Thanks, This sounded like a demo version or something? Try the original from "In the Court of the Crimson King" album, it's even better.
Be sure to also check out the aboriginal version, linked below. Both are great. The timing is different, subtly.
These are the gods of prog.
YES !! Thank you so much ! Amazing Song , DEEP ...
Wow, aside from some fellow stoners listening to this in the 70's, I've never seen anyone react to this song. Way to step out of the box my friend. This, by itself would have got a Sub. From me...... But you already have it. Keep em coming.
Had the opportunity to see King Crimson about five years ago now, and it was one of the major live music experiences of my life. I have been to about 500 concerts since 1975, and the Crimson show was a complete audio overload of my senses. I had seen Robert Fripp a couple of other times, with The California Guitar Trio and the King Crimson show was NOTHING like that. Intensity ruled the evening, and did not let up until the end. Amazing.
This song is very powerful.
Great reaction ! I think I was 16 when I got this album. It was a must have. "the fate of all mankind, I fear, is in the hands of fools" now more relevant than ever.
'The fate of all mankind, I see, is in the hands of fools' refers to Nixon and Brezhnev, I think, who had their hands on the nuclear button. So the knowledge that is a deadly weight, is the nuclear physics that made the atomic bomb a possibility. That would be my interpretation at least. Nowadays, you can still make it relevant to the current age, with the knowledge without rules being social media. And there are still a lot of fools in power, or trying to get back in power, all over the world.
Yes. 😰 This song is still relevant. King Crimson scared me when they were new. Especially "Twentyfirst Century Schizoid Man". 😱 I'm 72now and they still scare me! At least I'm not into acid since 1969.... 🤔🤷🙄😆😆😆💋💖🌵👵🐺🖖
A 50 yr KC follower here.
Robert Fripp led multiple ensembles….that kicked down doors in so many genres….
And he never played the hedonistic rock star…
The only ones…..
WOW! This song is just as pertinent today as the day it was so eloquently written! It's a sad song, but I want the whole planet to pay attention to it.
Prophetic Lyrics
I lost a very great love once. This became my anthem for a time. 45 years later it still shakes me.
Good choice! Best regards from Belgrade 🍻
Müthiş pat a mükemmel ses Grek lake huzur içinde uyu
Emerson, Lake and Palmer's Karn Evil 9 from Brain Salad Surgery is a musical and lyrical tour de force. It goes for half an hour and is in three parts, I think you'd enjoy it. Greg Lake on vocals, obviously.
dude, your break down nailed the vision I believe Robert Fripp intended, as we were still in the "Cold War" era and Nam justt thrown in for practice...rock on JMBoy !! perhaps a ELP video is in your future...
Great reaction and synopsis JMBoy! 👍
Excellent synopsis by the way…much more knowledgeable and deeply interpretive than others that purport to “react”. “Great job” (from a 71 year old who experienced this music in his youth).
Great reaction to a deep cut.
I love this song, and listen to it when I'm feeling especially nihilistic.
When I hear it in any other mood, it immediately reminds me of our current circumstances, how f@
Interesting version of a classic song. The bandleader Robert Fripp loves putting out different versions of the band's songs. It really sounds to me like different keyboard and percussion work was done here. Still a Great and heartbraking song. This song was released in 1969 during the height of the Vietnam War and the Cold War. The tone suggests the skepticism of the era towards lesders who many felt had mislead the public about the Vietnam War and the danger of Nuclear Annihilation.
A trick of the tail (Genesis), Selling england by the pound (Genesis) very good albums!
This version is the original version's ghost. Original version (ruclips.net/video/vXrpFxHfppI/видео.html).
And the original is better, more ‘heady’ too. Longer fadeout with much more pronounced mellotron.
I like this version, but it lacks the overall power of the court of the crimson king version , which i find much more haunting.
You owe it to yourself to hear this version as it was on the album!
@@36karpatoruski Greg's emphasis and timing on this version seem off kilter and the drums are a shadow of the original version. You are spot on about the mellotron, this version overall seems like it's a rehearsal.
Such an great group and really didn't have a huge following....so underrated......It's story telling, poetry.
This is a rabbit hole. This album it came off is epic. As are several of their albums up until the early 80s. Hope you do many more Crimson reviews
It's been too long since I've listened to this song - thank you.
Watching the accompanying video I felt that King Crimson was echoing the sentiments of WWI poets (such as Wilfred Sassoon). Bleakness made beautiful.
Stunningly magnificent album in its entirety.
My take on it is that its anti-war and anti-nuke specifically. One last thing is an epitaph isnt just a phrase that describes you, its the words written on your tombstone. Hes saying that as the warmongers profit off of human suffering, blindly following military advancement and ignoring the human cost, one day we'll just all be dead and nobody will know why
Your insight and analysis is a thing of beauty amazing reaction amazing song.
a perfect piece of music and eternal lyrics
Great Reaction
Great response. Much better than most.
Love this lyrically songs that strikes me like a funny or horrible poem 😊
First album. You need to check out their entire catalog, in order, album by album.
You will truly be blown away.
KC was the pillar of progressive rock. This was the base. I hear a bit of the Moody Blues and Doors on this album. I've forgotten which Russian impressionist got a nod, but I remember listing to that piece at least once and heard the connection. Ultimately, any band that's influenced by KC must sound a bit like them.
This is an alternative take
Fripp is boss.
This first album set the template for prog Rick to come. Except Moonchild.
I don't know if I can say it's my favorite song.Well maybe yeah I don't know . Gosh it's great
Great song. My cousin had it played at his funeral last year, but he made the decision back in the 70.
But can somebody tell me what version this is. It's not the one as from the record. It's not the same feeling as on the original. The drums on this one is so boring, just playing like a machine.
Back in the days we had this on a cassette tape and played it as we was watching stars, talking UFO and life in the Universe far out in the forest on a little hill. Much memories for me with this song.
You will love Magma, performing "De Futura" live.
kingo crimson
im a streat fool. yet in my time. good choice in times gallery. make my time in years worth it. jmboy tv.
WOW
Good old King Crimson..just as overwrought as I remember...
Prog at it's best
Peter sinfeld is a genius
Memento mori!
Has Fripp finally come to his senses and no longer blocks KC music?
I hear Lake's vocal but I think everything else is a cover...?! Interesting...
gg
Do. Spanish Stroll by Mink Deville, when you have a chance
Changed the drum sound too 🤷🏻🤔
Interesting version--- never heard this mix before.
Definitely prefer the original from the album, this one sounds a little bit canned.
.
Strange remix... Guitar very low 🤷🏻🤔
The original release was the best. Don't cheat yourself
Don't know where this version came from, but album version is way better.
Im sorry but what in the Midi backing track F is going on here. This is NOT THE KING CRIMSON RECORDING and is a mere shadow
oooof. not a big fan of this one. Love ELP. I suppose not my cup of tea.
I think mozarts requiem is a bit more uplifting . 😉
Original album instrumental is way better ....
Yikes, not the original. It's ok. But you need to listen to the original version.
You liked this? I strongly suggest you listen and react to "Starless" Thanks
That AI generated image of a “studio” 😂
It’s green screen bud
