Fripp and Wetton were this incarnation’s primary composers, each writing segments independently and fitting together those which they found compatible. With Sinfield gone, the band asked Wetton’s friend Richard Palmer-James , formerly of Supertramp , to be their new lyricist. Unlike Sinfield, Palmer-James was not an official member of King Crimson, having no involvement with the band other than writing lyrics, which he would mail to them from his home in Germany. Following a period of rehearsals, King Crimson resumed touring on 13 October 1972 at the Zoom Club in Frankfurt , with the band’s penchant for improvisation and Muir’s startling stage presence gaining them renewed press attention.
