The world of rock was, er, rocked to its foundations with the news that they are playing Hyde Park once again. The original gig in 1969 was of course a tremendous boost to a fledgling King Crimson who wowed the vast crowd with the likes of 21st Century Schizoid Man which, in the words of Ed Vulliamy, "threatened to blow the Stones offstage."

The next step is Discipline

The 1980s see a very different King Crimson incarnation originally touring under the name Discipline . The presence of Adrian Belew meant that Robert Fripp was working for the first time with another guitarist. This incarnation of Fripp, Belew, Bruford and Levin becomes the first one to record successive studio albums with the same lineup.
