- URobert Fripp - isiginci, amakhibhodi
- UGreg Lake - bass guitar, vocals
- U-Ian McDonald - amakhibhodi

Ngaphambi kokuvela kweKing Crimson, uRobert Fripp wadlala eqenjini lesithathu elithi "The Brothers Gills and Fripp". Abaculi bagxile emsindweni ozwakalayo emphakathini.
Baqhamuke nezingoma ezihehayo ezilindele ngokusobala impumelelo yezohwebo. Ngo-1968, abathathu bakhipha i-disc Merry Madness. Ngemva kwalokho, umdlali webhesi uPeter Gills washiya ibhizinisi lomculo okwesikhashana. Umfowabo, kanye noRobert Fripp, bakhulelwa iphrojekthi entsha.
Ngo-January 1969, leli qembu laba nokuprakthiza okokuqala. Futhi ngoJulayi 5, i-debut yeqembu elisha lenzeke eHyde Park edumile. Ngo-Okthoba, iKing Crimson yakhipha i-albhamu yabo yokuqala, Enkantolo Yenkosi Ebomvu.
Leli rekhodi libe ngumsebenzi wobuciko ongunombolo-1 emlandweni womculo we-rock ngasekupheleni kwawo-1960. Umshayi wesiginci weqembu, uRobert Fripp, ubonise okokuqala ikhono lakhe lokumangaza izethameli.
(Umdlalo wokuqala weqembu)
I-albhamu ethi "Enkantolo Yenkosi Ebomvu" yaba "igwinya" lokuqala kanye nengqophamlando yabaculi abadlala ngesitayela se-art rock noma i-symphonic rock. Umsunguli oyingqayizivele u-Robert Fripp ulethe umculo we-rock eduze kakhulu kokwakudala.
Abaculi bazame ukusayina isikhathi esinesigqi esiyinkimbinkimbi. Babengenakubizwa ngokuthi "Amakhosi Abomvu", kodwa "Amakhosi ePolyrhythm". Ezinyathelweni zabo, Yebo, uGenesise, ELP, njll. baqala ukukhuphukela ku-Olympus yomculo.
Inkosi uCrimson ngo-1969
Noma yikuphi ukwakhiwa kweqembu leKing Crimson kugcwele imibono yasekuqaleni namalungiselelo angalindelekile. UFripp kanye nabaculi beqembu bebehlale bebheke imisindo emisha namafomu omculo. Akuwona wonke umuntu owayenamandla nokudala ukuze ahlale "e-cauldron yokuhlola okuqhubekayo."
Ukwakheka kweqembu kwakulokhu kushintsha. Kwaze kwafika ngo-1972 lapho uFripp esebenza kahle nomdlali we-bass uJohn Wetton kanye nesigubhu uBill Bruford. Kanye nabo, wakhulula i-albhamu ejulile yeqembu elithi Red. Leli qembu lahlakazeka ngemuva nje kokuphuma kwe-albhamu.
Isici esiyinhloko seqembu leKing Crimson kwakuwukuntuleka kokuthuthuka esiteji. Ngenkathi abaculi be-Yes benweba izingoma zabo kuma-symphonies esigamu sehora, futhi u-Peter Gabriel wenza umdlalo wethiyetha wemizuzu engu-20, iqembu leKing Crimson lizilolonge.
UFripp ufuna ukunemba kubaculi. Emakhonsathini bebezwakala ngendlela efanayo naseqophelweni. Ibhendi ibinomsindo oqinile kanye nokusebenza okuzijwayezwe ngokobuchwepheshe.
URobert Fripp uphinde wafakazela ikhono lakhe lokumangaza umphakathi lapho, ngo-1981, ethula ukwakheka okubuyekeziwe kweqembu leKing Crimson. Ngaphezu kukaFripp noBruford (umshayi wezigubhu), uhlu lwabadlali luhlanganisa: u-Adrian Belew (umshayi wesiginci, umculi), uTony Levin (oshaya ibhesi). Bobabili ngalesi sikhathi base bengabaculi abanegunya.
Inkosi uCrimson ngo-1984
Bendawonye bakhiphe i-albhamu ethi, Isiyalo, eyaba umcimbi emhlabeni womculo. Kuphrojekthi entsha yeqembu, kuzwakale izisusa ezibonakalayo ezijwayelekile. Zahlanganiswa nokutholwe kwangempela kanye namalungiselelo ayingqayizivele.
Bekuyinhlanganisela ye-art-rock yokuqala ne-jazz-rock kanye nezici ze-hard. Iphuma ekukhohlweni, iKing Crimson ikhiphe ama-albhamu ambalwa yaphinde yahlakazwa ngo-1985. Lesi sikhathi cishe iminyaka eyi-10.
Ngo-1994, iqembu leKing Crimson lavuswa njenge-sextet noma lokho okubizwa ngokuthi "okuphindwe kabili":

Wakha umsindo oyingqayizivele ngokuphinda kabili umsindo wezinsimbi ezifanayo. Kwakhala iziginci ezimbili, izinduku ezimbili esiteji kwathi kuqoshwa kwasebenza abashayi bezigubhu ababili.
Lo mculo wawucwilisa umlaleli eqinisweni elingokoqobo, lapho insimbi ngayinye "iphila impilo yayo". Kodwa ngasikhathi sinye, ukwakheka akuzange kuphenduke i-cacophony. Bekuyisitayela esicutshungulwe kahle futhi esicutshungulwe kahle seqembu leKing Crimson.
I-double trio ikhiphe ama-albhamu amathathu. Ngayinye yazo yayihlaba umxhwele ngobunkimbinkimbi bayo kanye nobunkimbinkimbi bemisho yomculo. Ukubuyela endaweni yesigameko nge-albhamu encane ethi VROOOM, ngo-1995 ibhendi yakhipha i-CD Track eyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu eculayo.

Ngawo lowo nyaka, leli qembu lavakasha. Ukuvakasha kweqembu elinamandla kakhulu leqembu elithi King Crimson kwaba yimpumelelo enkulu. Baphinde bakhombisa ukuthi bayakwazi ukumangaza izethameli. Ngokusebenzisa amandla avuselelwe, leli qembu laphinde lahlukana ngo-1996.
Kusukela ngo-1997, abaculi bebelokhu besebenza kumaphrojekthi abo. UFripp, uGunn, uBelew, noMastelotto badlala ngezikhathi ezithile phambi komphakathi. Kulokhu kwakhiwa, basebenze ngeminyaka yawo-2000. Imvelo yomculo iseduze nomsindo wama-1990s. Ngo-2008 abaculi beza eRussia.
Badlala emcimbini othi "Creation of the World" eKazan, bese kuthi eMoscow club "B1". UFripp umeme umdlali wevayolini u-Eddie Jobson ukuthi acule. Kusukela ngo-2007, iKing Crimson yengeze isigubhu esisha, uGavin Harrison. Ngemva kwamakhonsathi, kwaba nekhefu elincane emsebenzini weqembu.
