Everyone seems to love this album and I'm happy for them but aside from the great main hooks in "All Blues" and the classic "So What," I have no tolerance for nor interest in hearing a bunch of guys making crap up on the spot.
Are you people absolutely CERTAIN that Miles didn't play his horn with his ass? These out-of-tune, weak "pfff-ARP"s and "bEEEP-bEEEEP"s are near-perfect imitations of intestinal gas.
Thus, my 5000-page dissertation arguing that Miles Davis put one over on the American people, using a magic marker to draw a face on his buttcheeks every night before shoving his trumpet up his ass and performing the latest hits. What's that? You want to know if I have proof? Well, it depends on what you mean by proof. If you mean do I have Miles Davis's corpse in my living room with a trumpet sticking out of its ass, then yes, I have proof. Otherwise, no.
To be fair, I gotta give a hand to the saxophone players on this album (Coltrane plays on a couple) - their parts are very easy on the ears: full-bodied and cool. But Miles? Yikes! Maybe the problem isn't his lack of talent but just the fact that the trumpet is a grotesque, unlistenable instrument. Having never played one, I should probably give ol' MD the benefit of the doubt. Lord knows that time I tried to play a trombone was no walk through the picnic!
Post the dissertation OP

Seriously? This is a /mu/ essential? I finally got around to listening to it after seeing all the hype this gets on websites like rym and was incredibly disappointed by the end. I was expecting more songs like 21st century schizoid man but instead got songs that are much slower and really don't hold up that well, and don't even get me started on moonchild. That song is objectively pretentious garbage.
Maybe I just don't get it, which is probably honestly it, but this was an incredibly disappointing listening experience.
i felt the same way after listening to it the first time. there's nothing pretentious about it though or any progressive rock in general, it's either good or wank and itcotck has some wank but stays pretty true most of the time
>>74636880
OP here
I really only found moonchild to be pretentious, I just found the other songs really cheesy.

You got memed. King Crimson is a bad band. Once a decade, they would put out album with 2-3 good songs on it. That be the album in the OP, Red, Discipline, and... that's it. They are simply not a good band, let alone a good progressive rock band. To me they are more just an experimental aimless project that never went anywhere. Progressive rock implies some sort of commitment to form or at least a vision.
Listen to some Genesis. Literally their entire catalog is amazing up to and including Invisible Touch. Or listen to Yes. They have three good albums and some other stuff that is mediocre unless you're a big fan, but still better than literally anything King Crimson ever put out. The three good albums are: The Yes Album, Close to the Edge, and Relayer.
Don't fall for the Fragile meme. That's a worse let down the ItCotCK.
Sparklehorse is better than Elliott Smith

it's good. it's about dragons
just go to rym and work down the list of top rated shit, that's what i did
>>74636507
(you)
1. Trans Europe Express
2. Kraftwerk
3. Radioactivity
4. Kraftwerk 2
5. Ralf und Florian
6. Computer World
7. Autobahn
8. The Man Machine
9. Electric Cafe
10. Tour de France
I also really don't get what's so great about The Man Machine. It's fucking synthpop and nowhere near as cohesive or experimental as Audobahn/Radioactivity/TEE.
1. Zenyatta Mondatta
2.Reggatta de Blanc
3. Synchronicity
4. Ghost in the Machine
5. Outlandos d Amour
>>74636274
good list
ralf und florian is so underrated
kristallo is one of their best tracks

It's pretty much general consensus that the answer to your question is Wonderwall.
>>74636231
Huh? Why do you say that?
>>74636293
People shit on it all the time because it's popular even though it's a great song, that's why.
Hip-hop isn't an exclusively black genre, stop race baiting
all my black friends listen to these albums
