As I read some of the comments here they certainly made me relate. I am now 73 years old, a lifelong guitarist and musician. Music was always the center of my universe since I was about 4 years old and my sister would bring home the old 45 RPM records. She would have me sit with her while we listened to this new kind of music called Rock and Roll. I played in my bands since age 14 and was considered a Hippie. I first heard King Crimson, and Greg Lake immediately when they released this incredible and awesome piece of work. I still have it in my old vinyl collection. I taught my eldest son to play guitar when he was 12 years old. He went on to become a rather famous guitarist and musician. His first group signed with Island Records in 2002, MTV video in the top 20, toured all over the US and Canada...Then he formed his own band, wrote all the songs, played guitar and sang. He named this group Jade Lemons and the Crimson Lust! So the legacy continues. Jade died April 6th 2016. My heart is broken forever, but he lives on in his music. They all do.

I am a 68 year old paraplegic, paralyzed doing what I loved the most, skiing. Music has always been a huge part of my life, especially extended works. Terrapin Station, Mountain Jam, King Crimson, Tubular Bells, too many to list. Now I listen with an entirely different perspective. My mind dissolves into the magic I'm listening to and it brings me back to a time when entering adulthood, anything was possible with your future life. No regrets with where I have arrived. The one constant throughout has been music. The stories of loved ones lost really touched me. I grieve your loss and wish you comfort, knowing your love of music helps you through heartbreaking times. Love and peace to all of you.

I went nearly completely paralyzed for a while from a disc herniation in my spine, and no one did anything. Felt like surgery without anesthesia. Ended up going 10 days without food, used a cane to drive from ER to ER from doc to doc, and people laughed at me while I begged for help. Idiot. Was left partially paralyzed, but can still walk, and no one cares. Wish I could go to the Mayo clinic before another disc herniates and I starve to death in a puddle of bodily fluids in a ditch like last time.

The reality: Island-Atlantic owned the rights to these early albums. Fripp probably had to buy the rights back from them. People are way too quick to put the blame on the artists, but the standard for signing on a record label, was to give the rights to their songs to the company. You had to hold out, and insist on retaining the rights, like Ray Charles did. But most bands didn't, they were just excited to get a record deal, and would do whatever, not knowing until later how they had been screwed.

Someone told such legend about that band-King Crimson-"They could record only one album and died in the air crash". That's why the song" Epitaph" was taken by us as a farewell to the dead musicians. Later we knew the truth.

It's literally the only reason why the dark tower exists, this song is pure lovecraftian horror the crimson king is an eregore a dark thought dreamt one day. A being of pure malice and agony, we've been in his court a long time and there is no way out. I also love how childish this song is its like a lullaby. It's so insulting to the listener but that's like my favorite thing about the song. Sorry I don't mean to dump all this on you but I truly believe this is one of the greatest songs ever written. I would honestly love if he was used in a more serious man very effective villain, don't get me wrong I love him in Jojo buy he is but a man, the real crimson king is a horrid manifestation. If we were to make an arc out of this album the only people capable of fighting against him would be the schizoid man and the moon child but that's like some really nerdy shit that I don't think anyone would take seriously lmao

Seventy years old now. Bought this album with my pay from my paper-round in 1969. Amazing then and amazing now....not aged at all, unlike yours truly! I regard myself as the luckiest generation when it comes to iconic music. A teenager in the 60s when everything was innovative; most since has been derivative (but some pretty good, nevertheless!). I was blessed to be born when I was and still going strong, with this sort of quality available to play and play and play.

@@alltimegamerpro2538 A guy With A Dead Channel here, the joke here is that children commonly scream whenever injected. In popular meme culture it is common to add a screaming effect after the format, hence implying that the singer is like a child being injected with a needle, however in this case it is impossible to add an image or clip without ruining the joke, therefore in memes on youtube timestamps are the preferred method of replacing the left out images and are arguably better as you will not be able to predict what will come next. N this case the timestamp implies that the singer in which sings the lyrics to this song is a child being injected with a needle and screaming with agony and fear at the thought of it.
