SUBJECTIn the Court of the Crimson King

How did King Crimson get their big break before the album’s release?

The band opened for the Rolling Stones in Hyde Park, London, in July 1969, before an estimated 250,000 to 500,000 people. This massive exposure brought them significant attention and helped launch the album when it was released that October.
