NHT100: KING CRIMSON – Walking On Air

Hi,

Welcome to this weeks NEVER HEARD THAT.

When progressive rock, with its fusion of musical styles came into being in the mid to late 1960’s, it became identified as a genre requiring the highest levels of musicality.

Vast sprawling epics, with virtuoso talents on display by each band member was the expected norm.

UK band, KING CRIMSON, and leader, Robert Fripp are a premier example of this.

However, our focus today is on a track that represents the softer, more evocative side of the band. This one doesn’t intend to knock you out, it intends to sooth your soul.

I hope you enjoy this weeks NEVER HEARD THAT.

Cheers, Andrew Muecke
