POTD: The Hall of the Mountain King #3
The Hall of the Mountain King #3
Budapest, Hungary
2011
Forty plus years is a long time for a song lyric fragment to be bouncing around in my head. That’s plenty of time for it to morph into something else. It turns out the song lyric I was remembering mentioned neither a hall or a mountain; it was actually In the Court of the Crimson King recorded by King Crimson in 1969. I recognized it immediately as the tune I was thinking of when I listened to it. No surprise that I got it twisted around. What is surprising is that my friend Orion took the sketchy information I provided and found the correct tune in a very short time. Something Google couldn’t do–I’m impressed!
In the Court of the Crimson King was never one of my favorite songs or I’d post a video of it, but you can see it here if you’d like.
