ah, I quite like Brian Blessed. He could have had a successful career in prog

No, I'd say Nightwatch which was actually lost in as much as it being the undoctored concert recording from Concergebouw Amsterdam overdubbed bits of which turned up on a couple of lps.
Lizard is ok, bit weird and losing points for the presence of that castrati geezer from Yes innit?

Perhaps Brian Blessed is a long-lost Shulman brother :-)

Could be a band name! Splendid!

Their peak has to be Red for me, and I have to admit I'm not that keen on Beat and the later ones. I loved them at the time, but they seem to have aged badly for me, particularly the 80s production.

I still like the 80s albums but almost never listen to them anymore and that's because I have the Absent Lovers live set which makes the 80s studio releases superfluous. Get it if you don't have it.

It's a good 'un, but for me it has to be the Wetton/Cross/Bruford era, so Red, USA, Starless & Bible Black and of course the Great Deceiver boxset are my Desert Island Crimso's. Larks' Tongues is in there too of course, but I prefer the live versions on USA of LTiA Pt 2, Easy Money and Exiles. Worth listening to the studio album though for LTiA Pt 1.

And what do folks think of Islands? A strange one for sure, but with some great moments.
