"When it comes to the absurdly resourceful bench of progressive rock bands, King Crimson were probably the most versatile of them all. Certainly, they were the most adventurous, with ceaselessly shifting line-ups inspiring entirely new sounds. One could play a song from their first, third, and fifth albums and the average listener would have no clue it was the same band. And that, in some regards, is the premise and essence of progressive rock."
