Joe Lynn Turner, Marty Friedman, Jah Wobble & Chester Thompson - Moonchild

This cover of King Crimson's Moonchild comes from an unlikely meeting of musical minds, as former Rainbow singer Joe Lynn Turner hooks up with ex-Megadeth guitarist Marty Friedman, longtime Public Image Ltd bassist Jah Wobble and Zappa/Weather Report/Genesis drummer Chester Thompson. Nearly 10 of the song's 12-and-a-half minute length are devoted to some rather enigmatic noodling from Friedmamn, and very good it is too. It's taken from the upcoming Reimagining The Court Of The Crimson King album, which sees Robert Fripp & Co.'s debut reworked by the likes of Todd Rundgren, Arthur Brown, Nik Turner, James LaBrie, Carmine Appice and Steve Hillage. It's out in April via Cleopatra Records.
