Does anybody know what happened to the muscians that played in the older
versions of King Crimsom. I know that Ian McDonald played for Foreiner
for a while. Where is Peter Sinfield? I have his solo album. McDonanld
and Giles also did a solo album that I have. Fripp of course is still
Crimsoming away. Greg Lake also was in ELP, and John Wetton was in ASIA.
Where is Wetton today? I liked the vocal work he did for Lark's Tongue &
Aspic and the Starless & Bible Black albums, so sorry about ASIA. I heard 
they fired him(?)

My favorite Crimsom album remains Islands and Lark's Tongue & aspic is next.
It seemed that they began their decline when Peter Sinfield no longer supplied
"words, sounds and visions". I haven't listened to much of the new stuff
I did hear BEAT and wasn't impressed enough to buy it. It seemed to lack 
structure. Maybe that was the point.
