Now, if King Crimson accepts responsibility for innovating its own tradition, you can't accept responsibility for the audience. And there is an enormous tangible weight of expectation, which comes from an audience attending a King Crimson concert.

I couldn't concentrate on music. So I made the choice to give up my career as a musician in the frontline to deal with the business.

That certain feeling happened to me in a big way quite often with the first King Crimson. Amazing things would happen-I mean, telepathy, qualities of energy, things that I had never experienced before with music. You can't tell whether the music is playing the musician or the musician is playing the music.

To me, Bill's musical heart is in Earthworks, in the jazz they are playing, in the acoustic kit.

Music can be transformative, utterly transformative. The act of music is utterly transformative.

The aim is freedom conscience and truth

Music never goes away. It is always available, but we're not always available for music.
