Nice comment! I'm a child of the 90's and fortunately, I had my childhood felt without internet.Sadly, then, music was not so often to listen but when you heard something, it left a mark in you forever. Then the value of music was valued much more, you lived for the music and you was breathe through it. Now that you have everything, you are erudite, but you feel less comfortable with easy accessibility. Now I am listening the King Crimson. Unique album!

King Crimson... that band was "during my time: too. But for some reason or other, I had not ever listened to any of its albums! I'll go find one.
Another band from the 70s that I like - Manfred Mann Earth Band. Especially that dreamy song of "Visionary Mountain" and several other songs from the Nightingales and Bombers album
Try with the first album - "In the Court of the Crimson King"
Yes, "In the Court of theKing Crimson" is a great introduction to the band.
For all intents and purposes, King Crimson is Robert Fripp, who recruits different musicians to create his brilliant music.
The original incarnation lasted only 5 years (1969–1974). The band reformed in 1981 and continued for 3 years, during which it released 3 albums, including the classic "Three of a Perfect Pair."
Since then, the band has gone though several incarnations. The one mainstay has been Fripp, and his brilliant compositions and his amazing guitar work. It's truly unique, and has transcended rock.
Fripp also did some great work with David Bowie, and has done several albums with Brian Eno of truly beautiful music.
