Customer Ratings & Reviews

King Crimson's third album is by far their jazziest, which also makes it their most controversial. Panned universally by critics - and most fans - when first released, Lizard even received Robert Fripp's scorn, and was the key factor in Gordon Haskell's exit from the band. However, Steven Wilson decided to undertake a massive remix to save this album's reputation, and the result is this awesome remixed CD. It may take a couple of listens for you to really "get" it, but when you do, it's an enlightening experience. My favorites are "Lady of the Dancing Water" and "Lizard", which features Jon Anderson from Yes on vocals. From the lovely acoustic guitar, to the gorgeous flute, to the rousing saxes, this album is a treat for every prog and jazz fan. If you want to hear the best of jazz rock/fusion, this is it right here. You MUST buy this!
