King Crimson - Exiles

Full Album Playlist:    • Larks' Tongues In Aspic | Full Album   EXILES (Cross, Palmer-James, Fripp) Now ... in this faraway land Strange ... that the palms of my hands Should be damp with expectancy Spring ... and the air's turning mild City lights ... and the glimpse of a child Of the alleyway infantry Friends … do they know what I mean Rain … and the gathering green Of an afternoon out-of-town But Lord I had to go My trail was laid too slow behind me To face the call of fame Or make a drunkard's name for me Though now this other life Has brought a different understanding And from these endless days Shall come a broader sympathy And though I count the hours To be alone's no injury ... My home ... was a place near the sand Cliffs ... and a military band Blew an air of normality - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - David Cross: Violin, Viola, Mellotron Robert Fripp: Guitar, Mellotron & Devices John Wetton: Bass Vocals & Piano Bill Bruford: Drums Jamie Muir: Percussion & Allsorts Engineer: Nick Ryan Cover Design by Tantra Designs, London Equipment by Kettle, Simmons & Walmsley Recorded at Command Studios, London — Jan & Feb 1973 A King Crimson Production #KingCrimson #RobertFripp
