I guess this is to be expected getting older, but all this dying going on really sucks.Russ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenGuthmiller Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Sure seems to be a lot of it going around lately. I guess I really didn't know a lot about John. I was never really an Asia fan, but King Crimson always intrigued me. I love "21st Century Schizoid Man"! Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russosborne Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 (edited) I was just the opposite. Never really knew much of King Crimson (back then), but was a big MTV junkie in the early 80's and Asia got big play at the time. Turned me into a big fan of theirs, but I too never really knew much about the members other than what bands they had been in.Russ Edited January 31, 2017 by russosborne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madhorseman Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I enjoyed the music of both Asia and King Crimson. Sad to hear Sure seems to be a lot of it going around lately.

Steve Steve, the vocals on "21st Century Schizoid Man" were done by Greg Lake... also was bassist and vocalist for King Crimson.

Mike C Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I like King Crimson too. Especially "In The Court of The Crimson King", "Red" and "Starless and Bible Black". He was also in "The Two Sides of Peter Banks", another great album. Peter Banks is deceased too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
