He was indeed an odd character as one can see in Crimson videos from that time.

"In the summer of 1972, Muir received a call from Robert Fripp, and was invited to join what was to become a new incarnation of King Crimson,[4] with a lineup that came to be, according to Muir, focused on "group potential and creating monstrous power in music."[2] During his tenure with the band, Muir occasionally played a standard drum kit, but more often he contributed an assortment of unusual sounds from a wide variety of percussion instruments, including chimes, bells, gongs, mbiras, a musical saw, shakers, rattles, found objects, and miscellaneous drums. Muir initially appeared on a single King Crimson album, 1973's Larks' Tongues In Aspic (the title of which was coined by Muir; when asked by Fripp what the music sounded like, Muir responded "why, larks' tongues in aspic ... what else?"),[5] on which he is listed as playing "Percussion and Allsorts"

I missed this, an 'influencer' before the crud world abused the phrase.
