Glad to hear you’re listening to King Crimson although I am not a fan of the streaming model. They are still not on Spotify which pays about half what Apple pays.
I’ve been a King Crimson fan forever but somehow only heard Starless and Bible Black a few years back. I reccomend checking that one out. In another unusual easing of control they allowed last year’s movie Mandy to use a track from Starless. Have you seen Mandy? I reccomend it and would be interested to hear your reactions. Has some hideous violence in it but operates in a mythic realm so it is palatable. The visuals, sound, and music are incredible though. If you already talked about it forgive me, I haven’t been able to listen as regularly lately. I’d also reccomend King Crimson’s Lark’s Tongue in Aspic.
Glad you are transmitting strong as ever. I can’t think of a podcaster that even touches you in terms of regularity and consistently compelling podcasts. Show art better than ever.

Thanks Nate!
I heard King Crimson is coming to Spotify next month. I’ve been meaning to check out Mandy, but I haven’t seen it yet.
