Funny, I watched this today; a near alignment, perhaps... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTDgmt9A2I0 King Crimson - Full Show (The Noise - Live At Fréjus 1982)

Funny the year date is when I painted the debut King Crimson album cover for a college English class.

Ok, wow. In the same year, I made a complete color study (in color theory class) of the song Larks Tongue in Aspic, wish I still had it. I remember the teacher was impressed, lots of tiny stripes of paper to show the beginning, middle and end of the song. Wish I could show you it, and that I could see what you had done as well. I am speechless a bit, that you did that and that you mentioned it, and that we can now discuss. Day is done! I am watching things about Tartaria. Trippin.

So all I can say in truth is outstanding synchronicity all over again! Phil Lesh somewhere said life is a loop and maybe McKenna deemed it strange loop! I wish I had my picture too. I recall painting it in the garage over two weeks. A lot of paint. And the funny thing is paint thickness added to the picture, so that in an odd way the viewer was drawn in to layers. My professor had not seen the album cover.

My professor had not heard the song. Thanks so for providing a place for this all to happen.

Something unseen? And modern man makes fun of 'humors' of the past . This is so rich.

“Be in permanent readiness for The Marvelous"

“Little Egypt” is not a small town, but rather a nickname for the southern region of the U.S. state of Illinois. This region, also known as Southern Illinois, comprises the southern third of the state, principally south of Interstate 701. It’s bordered by the two most voluminous rivers in the United States: the Mississippi River to the west and the Ohio River to the east and south.

The nickname “Little Egypt” has a few proposed origins. The most popular theory is that the name arose in the 1830s when a series of bad winters and droughts led to a poor harvest in the northern part of the state2. As a result, many people from the north traveled to the bountiful south to buy grain, corn, and other supplies. This migration was likened to the biblical story of the children of Jacob, who were forced to head south to Egypt in search of food during a time of famine.

That is a good item.

Nice and straightforward.

I have sent it to a friend. Let's see if there's any reaction.
