Bizarre mix of out-jazz and Dixieland that always sounded arbitrarily bolted onto Fripp's tritone metal grooves. Between that and Sinfield's mostly atrocious lyrics I just have no use for KC after the second album till the awe-inspiring Larks' Tongues In Aspic.

Yeah...he was out of the new release racks from '75 to '78 due to his legal woes.

I'll add Bowie's vocals throughout "Transformer," Chrissie's back-up / harmony on "Pride (In the Name of Love)," Jagger on Peter Tosh's "Walk and Don't Look Back," Elvis' few words tossed into "Tempted," Stevie Nicks on John Stewart's "Gold" (perhaps sadly balanced out by her appearance on Kenny Loggins' "Whenever I Cough up Phlegm"), Pavarotti on "Miss Sarajevo"...and, from a completely different (but excellently hilarious!) angle, Michael Caine in...well, you know, by Madness...and William S.
