Concur. It's absolute excrement. Aside from the fact that Sinfield has a voice that could best be described in tactful terms as breath-light and completely and utterly off every fucking key known to humanity, the lyrics are clearly the floor sweepings from the King Crimson repertoire; those that even Greg Lake pointed at and laughed. When I first bought it I got it on vinyl back in the days when it had been deleted and was scarce. I cannot remember being more disappointed by anything within the King Crimson 'family' of records, except perhaps the first time I heard 'Exposure'.

Then you'll want to acquire a copy of Pete Sinfield's solo album, "Still" that has "Song of the Seagoat" on it. A perfect melding of classical/prog/shit. But very pastoral.

Please be advised that the most important word above is shit. This has to be one of the worst records ever recorded. Yes, I own it. But it is in pristine condition because it has only been played a few times. Usually it was played back in the day when I wanted to make my friends laugh.
