Notes
A mere seven days after King Crimson’s first formal return to active service and the band are really cutting the mustard, the rug and quite probably the very legs out from under all the nay-sayers who moan it shouldn’t have been done. Containing what is for this listener an arguably definitive live version of Matte Kudasai, the gig has some real energy: B’Boom swings like the clappers on this outing whilst Thrak is downright low and dirty, thrashing about in the muddy end of the pool – just where it should be! Sounding comfortable and more in control of things than the September outings, the Double Trio shred SSEDD and a fire off a cracking good Indiscipline that shows Belew’s mastery of comic timing and features a fearsome wigging out from the back three. The old and new elements have really started to gel. Don’t you love it when a plan comes together?
