I couldn't find a King Crimson thread, so I started one.

Any recommendations on which King Crimson albums to check out first?

I already have a cassette copy of Red.

I shall follow with interest, I suspect I'd like it. I remember hearing early stuff while out socially and thinking it sounded like Sabbath, and I've heard the odd Belew noise thing, which is something I'm really into. Fripp must have had some influence on the whole shred scene, too.

John Wetton and Greg Lake were both also in the band Asia, though Greg Lake was only in Asia briefly, and didn't sing/play on any of their studio albums.
