Musically, this's great, but I just can't enjoy Boz vocals and Ladies Of The Road's up-beat parts.



Btw, Earthbound is the black sheep.

Yeah, the vocals of Boz are perhaps the weakest thing here. You know, this is the weakest line up of KC.

I agree with you. "Earthbound" is the lowest point of KC. And that is the opinion of Fripp, too.

Thanks to share your opinion with me. It always a pleasure to talk with you, amigo.

Unpopular opinion, but i like this a hell of a lot more than Starless and Bible Black (the album)

My fave KC



pos





"“Islands” features the Trifid Nebula situated in the Sagittarius constellation which is represented as a Centaur drawing a bow, mythical creatures that were half human, half horse and often treated as liminal beings. "



my copy is all white with the few blobs of color around that look like islands

Another huge fan of this album. Bravo wham.

"my copy is all white with the few blobs of color around that look like islands"

I didn't know that there was an alternative cover of the album. I never saw it. My two versions, vinyl and CD, have two standard covers.

Thanks for the pos, bro.

Easily better then Starless, Poseidon too. And everything after Discipline. Court and Lizard are only slightly better. Red, Larks Tongues, and Discipline are the top 3 for me.
