But I never knew about the spinoff band called 21st Century Schizoid Band, though I have been following Fripp for years on and off. I remember when a radio DJ on a commercial-free FM station played Perrey/Kingsley in the mid sixties. My brother and I were highly amused, and I realized big changes were coming to music.Peternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21509674.post-49620525699916505882022-08-15T09:31:14.531-04:002022-08-15T09:31:14.531-04:00Of course it is.

My favorite is their second album, 1970's "In a Wild Sanctuary". Both musicians were West Coast sales reps for Moog.

It was comprised mostly of former members of King Crimson from the first few albums. They toured playing mostly songs from that album and from pre-Crim albums that they were on with Robert Fripp. Their guitarist/vocalist Jakko Jakszyk wound up joining King Crimson proper.Steve Nicholsonhttp://theuniversalsteve.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21509674.post-73743803825243404702022-08-13T16:20:37.156-04:002022-08-13T16:20:37.156-04:00Of course, Peter was referencing the King Crimson ...Of course, Peter was referencing the King Crimson song.Waynohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16786587436381629626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21509674.post-25241193657921101312022-08-13T15:56:53.158-04:002022-08-13T15:56:53.158-04:00Your friend has a great sense of humor, but he'...Your friend has a great sense of humor, but he's not as original as may appear - "21st Century Schizoid Man" is a song by King Crimson from the Court of the Crimson King disk.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04789711159256407795noreply@blogger.com
