Prog is not a genre that I enjoy much but this album did have its moments and I did like it more than I expected to. There are some great moments of tension and release (well sometimes release) that ramp up the dramatic content. Robert Fripp is of course a legend and author of 2 of my favorite guitar parts of all time; Baby's on Fire and Heroes but I prefer his playing when it is understated and melodic (Baby's on Fire notwithstanding. I liked the album and I'm glad it showed up here but its not like I'm running out to find more King Crimson albums as a result 3 stars
