Ian McDonald Conversation

[Ironclaw]

As the muse may be descending on the early phase of Crimson music I thought Crimheads could get into that space a bit by listening to

There are 8 parts. This is only for folks with a lot of time. Ian McDonald is polite and a slow speaker and there are plenty of annoying mellotron nerds in the room trying to get their word in. But if you have patience there are a few interesting bits in each part.
What I find interesting is mostly what Ian has to say about Fripp and the early days. Suggestion: maybe skip around a bit till you hit something interesting.
For the most part it will probably bore you to tears.
