Yes, "In the Court of theKing Crimson" is a great introduction to the band.
For all intents and purposes, King Crimson is Robert Fripp, who recruits different musicians to create his brilliant music.
The original incarnation lasted only 5 years (1969–1974). The band reformed in 1981 and continued for 3 years, during which it released 3 albums, including the classic "Three of a Perfect Pair."
Since then, the band has gone though several incarnations. The one mainstay has been Fripp, and his brilliant compositions and his amazing guitar work. It's truly unique, and has transcended rock.
Fripp also did some great work with David Bowie, and has done several albums with Brian Eno of truly beautiful music.
