    I have a vinyl called Katmandu by a Led Zeppelin-style Hard Rock band. They are not the same band, or Katmandu is the song.

From Epitaph ("epitaffio"), the third track of the album, a prophetic and dystopian tone:

« The fate of all mankind I see / Is in the hands of fools »

" The fate of all mankind that I see / is in the hands of fools "

The album cover is a painting from 1967 by the London artist Tammo De Jongh, titled: 'The 12 Archetypes' or 'The 12 Faces Of Humankind' and depicts twelve human faces, each of which symbolizes an archetype, according to a peculiar physiognomy theorized by the homeopath and radiesthete John De Monte, who based on his theories, had commissioned TDJ the twelve portraits.

King Crimson: Larks' Tongues in Aspic
10 sep 17
I n d e l e b l e

In Larks' Tongues in Aspic, part two, the electric guitar chords of the introductory theme, with their violent and martial rhythmic figures, "allude" (by the admission of the author himself) to the opening bars of "Les augures printani - Danse des adolescentes" from Igor Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring.

In 1974, the producers of the famous soft-core film "Emmanuelle" used, without Fripp's permission and without crediting him as the author, a re-orchestrated version of this piece to accompany almost all the sex scenes, including three rapes: the controversy was resolved with a settlement in favor of Fripp, who received compensation.

Immediately after the release of Red, Fripp announced to the press that King Crimson had "ceased to exist," and shortly thereafter he retired to the community founded three years earlier by Bennett, the International Academy for Continuous Education in Sherborne, Gloucestershire, where he remained for almost two years without contact with the guitar or the music world.

King Crimson effectively disappeared until 1981.

The connection between Fripp and the legacy of Bennett, Ouspensky, and Gurdjieff was destined to remain constant, profoundly inspiring both the artistic and personal choices of the guitarist, up to the present.

Discipline is the first album after a seven-year break; it is an eclectic record, very close to the sound of the Talking Heads' "Remain in Light," to which Fripp and Belew had recently contributed.

Disturbing for those who were used to the early King Crimson, it is now essential like "In the Court of the Crimson King," "Larks' Tongues in Aspic," or "Red," blending typical '80s new wave sounds with the heavy and dark atmospheres of the previous decade.

The "Trouser Press Record Guide" reports that the album is centered around the 25th anniversary of the publication of "On the Road" by Jack Kerouac.

The album's title is also due to the strong inspiration drawn from writers of the Beat Generation, such as Allen Ginsberg.

It became famous because it was divided into two distinct sides: the first side contained the more accessible tracks; the second, however, contained tracks that were more experimental.

It was a kind of favor reserved for King Crimson fans who only enjoyed the catchier songs, thus preventing the listener from skipping the songs they did not like.

First collection of KC

The tracks are mostly identical to the versions included in the albums, with some exceptions:

"Moonchild" from "In the Court of the Crimson King" is shorter, that is, without the long improvised section of the original version.

"Cadence and Cascade" from "In the Wake of Poseidon" is about a minute shorter.

While "Cat Food" features the version, also shortened, released as a single in 1970.

Finally, from the track "Larks' Tongues in Aspic - Part I," which lasts over thirteen minutes on the eponymous album, only the concluding part is extracted.

Konrad Lorenz: E l’uomo incontrò il cane
22 sep 17
Lorenz guides us here first towards the origins of the "encounter" between man and dog, when the relationship was primarily with their two very different ancestors: the jackal and the wolf. These origins leave their marks in all the complex forms of understanding, obedience, hatred, loyalty, and neurosis that have developed throughout history between dog and owner.

Konrad Lorenz: L’anello di Re Salomone
22 sep 17
Legend has it that a magical ring granted King Solomon the power to speak to animals and understand their language. Konrad Lorenz, one of the founders and foremost theorists of ethology, found, one could say, an equivalent of that ring by studying for many decades, with loving patience and keen observation, the behavior of animals, whom he always wanted to be surrounded by, not only in university laboratories but also in his private life. (from Adelphi)
