Alan
Callan (Swan Song Records, 1977-79): In 1977 I was at the Plaza Hotel in New
York with Jimmy Page, and we were going out somewhere. It was absolutely
pissing down as we walked out through the side of the door of the hotel to
where the limo was waiting.
As
the doorman takes us to the car, a woman standing in the doorway in a fur coat
says: «What do I have to do to get some attention here? Look at these two with
their jeans and long hair – how come they got a car immediately?»
The
doorman says: «Well, ma’am, it’s like this: the first guy there, he’s been
practising what he’s good at since he was six years old. If you went home and
did the same, you’d probably get a
limo when it rained.»

Não
sei se quero ou não saber destes King Crimson actuais. Ao ouvi-los sou até
capaz de sentir um certo prazer mental quando me apercebo de como tudo está
estruturado e parece encaixar-se; contudo, falta-me a excitação de ouvir algo
que me arrebate pelo que é no imediato. (E tudo isto porque adorei esta
fotografia.)
