Sid is a fine writer and while he is most definitely a FAN, he also doesn’t write as a fanboy. There’s lots of interviews, insights, gossip and deep details. HUGE fun for those who admire the [on and off] 50 year run of this band and the musician(s) behind it.
“Sid Smith’s In The Court Of King Crimson: An Observation Over 50 Years traces King Crimson’s career from the 1960s underground scene to the present day, featuring interviews with all the principal musicians and people associated with the band, a track by track analysis of studio output and an extensive annotated gigography.
A significantly expanded follow-up to the acclaimed In The Court Of King Crimson from 2002, Smith’s book is an essential companion to one of the most intriguing careers in Rock music history.
Long out of print and double the size of its predecessor, the book includes material from King Crimson’s archives plus much previously unpublished material.”
“Smith has written the definitive life history of the band which has at long last been updated and republished.
This hardcover edition, considerably more expansive than the original paperback version, through updated research and interviews, brings the bands activities up to date all the way to the current touring band. King Crimson, as a band, has never been as active and relevant than it is nowadays. Smith has provided a most satisfying read for the fans of King Crimson and is definitely worth a second look.”-Taffey Lewis
