Way-hay, it's Jukebox Friday Night again on 28 March 2025, and the theme is "Signs and Signals" (communications: messages, whistles, flags, hidden meanings).

Oh boy.

King Crimson, "Elephant Talk" (1981)

Adrian Belew goes as far as he can through a thesaurus entry for "talk"…
"Arguments, agreements, advice, answers,
Articulate announcements …"

In The Court Of The Crimson King - King Crimson

Said by some to have begun the prog rock phenomenon (although Pink Floyd and The Nice might have something to say about that), this is certainly one of the most influential albums of that genre. The first track, 21st Century Schizoid Man (which surely influenced Black Sabbath) was sampled by Kanye West in the track Power.

Which one is the best progressive rock album?

🔊 King Crimson, Larks’ Tongues in Aspic (1973)
