Wow I can’t believe you’ve never heard Dark Side of the Moon, very excited to see what you think of that album. Also am hoping that the King Crimson album you end up doing is Red (my personal favorite of theirs) which features both John Wetton (RIP) who is one of my favorite bass and vocal combos in rock and also Bill Bruford who’s among my favorite drummers and has been cited as a large influence for Morgan Sampson
@@Randyjoe213 ahhh makes sense. I will admit I'm also a big fan of Larks Tongue but still gotta recommend Red over it if you have to pick one or the other. That being said both albums feature the lineup of members that I mentioned in the original comment so you can't go wrong either way.
@@Randyjoe213 i would also highly highly recommend their album discipline ! especially the extended version, it has some awesome cuts on it. def my favourite king crimson album
35:35 I love your description on this part. It is one of my favorite track on the album; and that goes the same with that section of it. Now I know why it sounds beautiful and fragile.
This is not a Brazilian samba influence This is a Salsa influence. Which is more of a Latin American influence. It’s from Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic and Mexico. this music is the soundtrack to my neighborhood. It’s in the streets, coming out of the stores etc… It’s absolutely amazing that I hear it done so well by some guy in england
Yup. He explained in a recent interview with Anthony Fantano that in songs like Terra, for example, he went for salsa when composing, although it might also have a slight samba feel thanks to the Brazilian session musicians who recorded it putting a bit of their own spin on it. Still, he had some Brazilian influences in there, too, namely Milton Nascimento.
Some people are saying "salsa" influence only, but it makes no sense. This album is purely brazilian and other latin music blended together! Terra was supposed to be salsa, but it turned into samba thanks to his recording in brazil. Also one of his favorite albums of all time is Clube da Esquina, by Milton Nascimento & Lô Borges (my favorite album). So I actually recommend you to listen to that album!
Just watched your entire video... your synopsis was fantastic and worth of a subscription, easily. And yes, this album is an incredible work of art.
Thank you for subbing! Easy AOTY contender for me

I was debating on either Red or Larks Tongue but given your recommendation, Red it is!
