Goodness, no.

We need love on the rooftop, a la Desmond Child.

Sorry for the somewhat late update. Got kinda busy with IRL stuff.
Anyway – to everyone's shock and surprise I'm sure, Steve Hackett is out!

And now comes the moment of truth: Who will be crowned the winner of the Symphonic Prog category?

Final round
1. Yes - Close to the Edge
5. King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King

Vote 1 off. The final result will be announced on August 17.

Only one is close to the Edge. And to save the King.. it needs to be pushed over.

They do a great cover of "Shake Your Hips" on that album.

There's also a great live performance of them playing it...

Spoiler for Shake Your Hips:

I discovered that song because I'm a bit of a true crime junkie, and its based on murderer Rod Ferrell. He took Vampire the Masquerade too far. I was always really fascinated by that case, being a tabletop player.

I really like the song anyways, and haven't explored the rest of the album much. With your recommendation I'll have to do that!

I know it'll be a shock to everyone, but...

Yes - Close to the Edge (but not close enough)

I have too much history with CttE, and CotCK isn't my favorite Crimson album, so...

Bye CotCK

Yes - Close to the Edge
