Epic Tunes

King Crimson had one of the most stunning debuts in history. With their debut LP alone, they heavily influenced the development of progressive and experimental rock. They released a total of thirteen studio albums and they have several songs which have been unfairly overlooked – overshadowed by the more popular tracks.

Let’s explore some of these:

10. Requiem

Although it’s hauntingly beautiful, this song caused drama among the members. Still, it’s one of their best instrumental tracks.

9. Cadence and Cascade

YouTube video

Exceptional but among their other songs, this is fairly easy to overlook which is quite a shame.

8. Model Man

YouTube video

A brilliant tune but not getting enough appreciation. From the catchy riff to the lyrics, it’s unfortunate that they never performed it live.

7. Doctor Diamond

YouTube video

Yet another masterpiece.

6. Book of Saturday

One word – SUBLIME.

5. Cat Food

YouTube video

It showcases all the things we love about the band particularly their impeccable musicianship.

4. Neal and Jack and Me

YouTube video

Fun and catchy plus with great leads. It’s absolutely amazing.

3. Indoor Games

YouTube video

It’s not everyone’s cup of tea even among King Crimson’s most ardent fans but it has its moments for sure.

2. The Night Watch

YouTube video

Beautifully done especially with the violin parts and guitar solo.

1. Easy Money

YouTube video

It’s a great track but the live versions always reign supreme.
