Daily Song Discussion #31: The Great Deceiver
Post Body

This is the first track from King Crimson's sixth album, Starless and Bible Black. How do you feel about this song? What are some of your favorite lyrics? What’s your favorite live performance of the song? How would you rank it among the rest of the band’s discography? How would you rate it out of 10 (decimals allowed)?

Studio version

SUGGESTED SCALE:
1-4: Not good. Regularly skip.
5: It’s okay, but I might have to be in the right mood to listen to it.
6: Slightly better than average. I won’t skip it, but I wouldn’t choose to put it on.
7: This is a good song. I enjoy it quite a bit.
8-9: Really enjoyable songs. I rank them pretty high overall.
10: Masterpiece, magnum opus, or similar terminology.

At the end of this discussion series, I will compile the results from each discussion and create a full discography ranking.

Rating Results 1. Larks Tongues in Aspic, Part One: 9.89/10 2. Larks Tongues in Aspic, Part Two: 9.80/10 3. Exiles: 9.22/10 4. Easy Money: 9.17/10 5. Book of Saturday: 8.82/10 6. The Talking Drum: 8.80/10

It's so atonal and bizarre with non sequitur lyrics (yeah, even for KC)

  1. One of my least favorite songs from this era
