Talk:Islands (King Crimson album)

Untitled
Nice and short article. Some details of the album's sound could probably be elaborated on. I'd also like to add that the cover art is of the Trifid Nebula MrAngy 07:57, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Ladies
I read somewhere that Robert Fripp once actually apologized to his mother live and onstage for the lyrics in Ladies of the Road, if anyone can back this up or would like to add this to the article, I've armed you with the information to do so. AlexRochon 21:02, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Putting 'Fripp mother "Ladies of the Road" apologized' into a search engine yields no promising results. I don't suppose you remember anything about where you read this?--Martin IIIa (talk) 19:14, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

alternate album cover
since this album had two different widely distributed covers back in ye olde vinyl days (UK and US?) the alternate cover should be included as well J Edward Malone (talk) 15:42, 7 October 2016 (UTC)

Need more
I feel we need a much longer and more detailed entry. It should include if possible material and comments from the artists. I felt that reviews from the time, nearly 50 years ago, should only be the starting point for a proper critical assessment. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.100.228.58 (talk) 08:17, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

got to say, I agree. this has the look of a poorly executed homework essay padded out with quotes where it lacks insight & genuinely useful data- what strife accompanied the recording process? what effect did the poor reception have on the other members? etcetera... instead of a list of everyone who somehow wangled their name onto the re-release for, what? guarding some old tapes?
