Before I start the review, I want to pay my respects to Ian McDonald who unfortunately passed away a few days ago, on the 9th. While he may not be one of the key names of King Crimson that we all think of when we think of the band, he most definitely should be. Ian was one of the key founding members, and a huge part of the sound of this very TuLi.
