Wetton's bass tone on Larks I is fucking unreal, so fluid but has a oomph to it

Quite a claim. I adore the overdrive tone he has on Red. I can tell Larks has a unique tone, but it's just certain parts that don't sound great on my audio rig. That's what I'm saying it's probably because my CD isn't mastered right. Do you listen on vinyl or CD?

Ya this is definitely my favourite guitar tone of frips early Crimson albums. Red comes close though. I have the remastered vinyl of this and a 320 vinyl rip (I know those are a mixed bag) but it worked out great for me.

I'll probs get it eventually, but I don't own Lizard in any capacity so that should be higher on my list. Priorities...
