Rock Docs Live - In the Court of the Crimson King: King Crimson at 50

Rock Docs

This episode is a recording of the first-ever live Rock Docs podcast, recorded at the home of Michael and Kristy Rennie along with friends and fans of the podcast. Along with King Crimson superfan Roger Morrison, we watched the 2022 documentary "In the Court of the Crimson King: King Crimson at 50", directed by Toby Amies.

What you'll hear in this episode is the conversation following the screening.

The movie is an exploration of the legendary prog rock band King Crimson, overseen by Robert Fripp, the band's leader and only consistent member. We see the band as they prepare for and go on a 50th anniversary tour, along with interviews with current and past members.

The movie is as eccentric as the band itself, and is also surprisingly warm and funny. Featuring memorable moments from fans (including a nun) and the band's grizzled roadies.

Thanks again to Michael and Kristy for co-hosting the event, to Michael for stepping into Andy's shoes as the episode's co-host, and to Roger for his KC insights.
