We asked who said this "Robert Fripp is still as daring and
adventurous today as he was when he started King Crimson almost 40 years
ago. Perhaps it’s because they’ve never
achieved real commercial success as the other four of the so-called big five of
Genesis, Yes, Pink Foyd or ELP did? In
any case, he has constantly reinvented Crimson every ten years or so and
created quintessential prog albums for each decade with a completely different
band and sound each time.”
As many guessed (or more worryingly, actually knew) the answer is
Dream Theatrer’s Mike Portnoy in an interview as part of the September edition of
Classic Rock Magazine's prog rock expose.
Mike was responding to the question which musician or band has stayed closest to the spirit of prog? He goes on to cite Court, Red, Discipline, Thrak and The Power To Believe as being the crucial parts of the KC canon.
