The second UK album "Danger Money" was also pretty good. Wetton was also
part of my favorite King Crimson incarnation in '73-'74. KC was on fire at
the time. 3 albums in 2 years (Larks, Starless and Red). Their live shows
during these years were also amazing. (and very well documented on a great
sounding 4-CD box called Great Deceiver)
There was an article on JW in a recent issue of Progression magazine. The
guy is in really sad shape these days. The typical rock and roll drug/booze
burnout story. The guy had a great career, playing with Family, Crimson,
Roxy Music (tour only), UK and then to the top of the charts with Asia.
