So, a couple of years ago Robert Fripp put together yet another lineup of the oh so mighty KING CRIMSON, this time featuring 3 drummers! Ha! I have seen every line-up of Crimson since 1984, except this one. I hope to catch them at some point . . for now this new release will do. As is common for Crimson these days, this set looks like a monster. . . . it was released earlier this week.
Here is the info, copied from the awesome waysidemusic site . . (it can be ordered from there for $33.00, nice price for 3 cds and a bluray!)
Ever since Robert Fripp re-formed King Crimson and started touring, this is the set that all the fans who saw and were blown away by the shows (and those that couldn't attend the shows) have been waiting and waiting for. And we have a monstrously groovy price on this 4 disc, amazing set!
Robert Fripp: Guitar & keyboard
Mel Collins: Saxes & flute
Gavin Harrison: Drums
Jakko Jakszyk: Guitar & voice
Tony Levin: Basses & stick
Pat Mastelotto: Drums
Bill Rieflin: Drums & keyboards
“This is King Crimson… re-imagined” – Robert Fripp, June 2016
"Three CDs featuring a representative example of every song/piece performed by King Crimson on its 2015 tours of the UK, Canada & Japan CDs presented as individually themed “virtual studio albums” with no audible audience & mixed for audio presentation. Some pieces were originally composed in 1969 the year of the band's inception, others composed/initially performed at a variety of points since, some new to the tour, all newly arranged for this specific line-up.
One Blu-Ray featuring a complete set-list drawn from Japanese concert performances – almost 3 hours of music - in high-resolution stereo & 5.1 surround audio complete with “picture off” mode allowing the music to be heard independently in pristine, lossless audio. (24/48khz as per original recordings).
Four disc set presented in two mini-vinyl style gatefold packs with 20 page booklet in an outer slipcase.
A comprehensive and immersive account of the 2015 live incarnation of the ever evolving entity that is the mighty King Crimson."
Audio/Video performances include:
1. Threshold Soundscape,
2. Larks' Tongues in Aspic Part One
3. Pictures of a City
