I would lend you an album, but you would run screaming
from all music-
If there is one group that embodies progressive rock, it is King Crimson. Led by guitar/Mellotron virtuoso Robert Fripp, during its first five years of existence the band stretched both the language and structure of rock into realms of jazz and classical music, all the while avoiding pop and psychedelic sensibilities; the absence of mainstream compromises and the lack of an overt sense of humor ultimately doomed the group to nothing more than a large cult following, but made their albums among the most enduring and respectable of the prog rock era.

Sounds like Devil music.
OK I have a question,
"river the colour of lead" is a famous line from a famous song, but it was stolen from a book, whose author had curiously also stolen the line.
Name the books.

A Taste of Honey by Shelagh Delaney
Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad (Although, he says "sea" so maybe that's not the earlier source).

Ding ding DING.
I do not have the book in front of my, but I thought it was river, they are on a trip up river, right? Oh silly me, " the very end of the world, a sea the colour of lead, a sky the colour of smoke, a kind of ship about as rigid as a concertina – and going up this river with stores, or orders, or what you like"
Smartass.

David Coverdale's real name is Stephen Demetre Georgiou. He changed it to David Coverdale because someone else had already made it big with his given name. It's a fact.

well seeing as anything that involves extended instrumentals scares you, ratio is right you'll end up under the bed. but the three King Crimson albums done in the 80s with Adrian Belew, Fripp, Tony Levin and Bill Bruford are some of my favorites.
