Ian McDonald and Michael Giles were two of the original members of the King Crimson and featured on 'In the Court of the Crimson King' (1969).
Both left the group at the end of its first North American tour in 1969, although Giles appeared on the second King Crimson album, 'In the Wake of Poseidon' (1970), as a session musician.
Two other King Crimson members also worked on McDonald and Giles: Peter Giles and Peter Sinfield.
The music on McDonald and Giles contains many of the pastoral and musically complex elements of King Crimson, but generally eschews that band's darker, heavier tendencies.
The song 'Flight of the Ibis' has a similar melody and rhythm to King Crimson's 'Cadence and Cascade', with new lyrics.
The album contains a guest appearance by Steve Winwood, playing organ and piano on 'Turnham Green' (Traffic were working on John Barleycorn Must Die at Island Studios at the same time)
