  For Boz September 22, 2006
Written by pyython
Earthbound was the album that completely pulled me in to the KC world (Red started the movement for me). It’s home-recorded quality hid the fact that this group jams and brings a lot to the table. Boz’s voicings drove several pieces and "It makes no difference what you think about me. It makes a whole lot of difference what I think about you!" and his subsequent gutteral grunting still stands in my mind as one of the great lines in Rock and Roll. Ab-so-friggin-lutely awesome!
That and his voicing on the Pharoah Sanders piece from Denver ’72 will always have a very special place in my heart and mind.
My deepest sympathies to Boz’s family and friends in this time of sorrow. I sure he will be missed, and I know he will not be forgotten.

What a sad loss to the Crimson world and how unexpected too. Boz Burrell definitely left his mark on King Crimson with their innovative "Islands" album as well as a multitude of live performances with the band (Check out "Earthbound" Read more

Yesterday night the new of Boz’s passing away shocked me. In Spanish language, Boz sounds almost identical to "voice". I’ll always recall his voice when on an island or close to the sea, seagulls will understand my mood Read more
