McDonald and Giles (1971) Flight of the Ibis

Ian McDonald, the saxophonist and flautist of King Crimson left the successful Prog outfit after it's initial ground breaking success to create this collaboration with that group's drummer Michael Giles. The flower pop of this prog record owes it's sound to the more lighter Canterbury Sound bands rather than the dark prog of Crimson and Van Der Graaf Generator though Giles' drumming is still par excellence.
