Ya know, for years I was only familiar with the Crimson albums, before 74. I didn't hear the reformation album, til several years after they came out. But, I was also a Zappa fan. So, it was a nice surprise to find out that Adrian Belew was the new member and main vocal on those next 3 KC albums, kuz I liked his work on Zappa's Sheik Yerbouti album. And to this very day, I still can't listen to the three KC comeback albums, without thinking, "city of tiny lights... don't you wanna go?..." That's not a bad thing! Kuz, I love both!... Zappa and KC. I know Adrian also did some solo stuff, too, which I never got around to checking out.

@@jayjay86443 I don't get to sit round listening. But usually there's more dynamic range with vinyl.

If I'm still alive in thirty years, it'll still play, just like it does today.
