A couple of original lineups were only present for a short while. For instance, King Crimson had that for their debut album alone. However, the latter remains an essential listen despite the LP presenting just one facet of the group. Actually, In The Court Of The Crimson King might be the platter, where Fripp feels like another band member and not the boss. Moreover, they sound like both Yes and the Moody Blues, though had a wild night of partying. Still, many of the tunes there could be played by either of the two I mentioned, yet I believe they also showed more fragility than these giants of progressive rock and while King Crimson rarely returned to the soundscapes here, they did keep the same emotionality – yes, I consider them to be the most emotional progressive rockers.

King Crimson ~ I Talk To The Wind ~

~ ♫♪♫ ~

Said the straight man to the late man Where have you been? I've been here and I've been there And I've been in between

I talk to the wind My words are all carried away I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear

I'm on the outside looking inside What do I see? Much confusion, disillusion All around me...

I talk to the wind My words are all carried away I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear

You don't possess me Don't impress me Just upset my mind Can't instruct me or conduct me Just use up my time

I talk to the wind My words are all carried away I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear

~ ♫♪♫♪♫ ~

I talk to the wind My words are all carried away ~ ~ ~ I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear

Said the straight man to the late man Where have you been? I've been here and I've been there and I've been in between

King Crimson, I talk to the wind, In the Court of the Crimson King, 1969

[ithinkimightbeagoose]

I have gay Converse, a spell jar and a complete and utter lack of a moral compass

but I have a necklace that I haven't taken off for about a month and counting, shitty piano skills, and a maybe delusional friendship with the WIND so I think that counts for something

King Crimson Issues Hybrid Version of “I Talk to the Wind,” Making a Dated Song Even More So

In updating and hybridizing King Crimson’s “I Talk to the Wind,” producer Alex “Stormy” Mundy has made the track even more dated than it already was.

Grafting Greg Lake’s vocals from In the Court of the Crimson King over a wispy early backing track by guitarist Robert Fripp, drummer Michael Giles and multi-instrumentalist Ian McDonald, who adds mellotron, flute and other period relics to the ballad, Mundy’s made what comes off as a parody of “Stairway to Heaven.”

I talk to the wind/the wind does not hear, Lake sings.

Most of Crimson’s material was so ahead of its time, it still sounds futuristic today. The Court version of “I Talk to the Wind” is one of the rare exceptions and this “Stormy Mundy” Frankenstein version is better heard as a lark than as a tongue in aspic.
