    So many times over the past year I have run these lyrics through my head.
    Never seen this version before, a sombre sobering video not exactly inspiring.
    But this is purely the one song, most recordings have multiple tunes.
    I have it on the original album which has several long tracks.
    It was the first time that I heard a mellotron live, they were soon superseded by computer generated effects.
    I saw King Crimson live at Malvern Winter Gardens in 1969. Very Impressive.
    The venue also featured Jethro Tull and Savoy Brown Blues Band on other Saturday nights.
    I suppose this could be called a "Cold War Anthem" by some.

    Excellent celebration of Dark Side of the Moon's 50th.
    Think they may now be top of the pops for long-term acrimonious band break-ups.
    Increasingly unassailable chart position.

    Meanwhile, Nick Mason continues to quietly collect Ferraris etc.

    You might need to turn the sound up.

    Some nice touches, enjoy playing the bass line, Rory's harmonic touches give it atmosphere.
    Released from studio recordings some time after his death.
    He blew me away at the IOW Festival in 1971 with Taste.
    Thought he was better than Hendrix.
