Notes
This track is now available for download as part of a bumper collection of Mr Stormy's Monday Selections - his first year of random romps through the murky, cavernous DGM archives, torch in hand, fedora upon his head.

Here’s an outtake of the never-quite-sounded-like-this variety. It dates from Crimson’s rehearsals back in September 2004 – a ProjeKct XL (L for Levin, folks) if you will. Knitted together by Pat Mastelotto with close encounters of the Bill Munyon kind, it quickly gets in an expansive groove. Given the way it was constructed the Ex Uno, Plures title (literally "From one, many) is exceedingly apt.

Pat recalls “It was from our second get-together with TLev at Adrian’s place with Ken (Latchney) recording stuff. I took a copy and dived into it ala ProjeKct 3. Bill and I worked on these jams on and off for a several months and then took a break. Time marched on and a year or so later I went back to it but the drive wouldn’t open. I tried two different LaCie housings, and even gave it to an E-session tech pal but nobody could get it to boot, and so it got put back on the shelf.”

Basement Belew.

Under construction: the Sirius Probe…

On the left, a rhythm section provided by Soundtrack. On the right, a Guitar Rig by Native American. In the middle, hope.

11.01 The Team are arriving.

11.44 Tony has set up an i-Sight camera on the 17" & is introducing me to new onboard wonders. Sounds of werning bass through the studio door.

While Pat & Tony are setting up, an e-flurry. From Pat yesterday: a review of a KC Norway show of 2003 translated through a computer program from Norwegian into English…

Facts am smelling event this evening! King Crimson am after all a 70- number bandage as continued able have pertinent gear to announce, and it has slow grabbed her interval to a few the band does not hit at city. Eve complement able arduous depict as King Crimsons mainly absorbing, but it going along with her most at the band lean conventional and særtrekk. Robert Fripp, Adrian Coat, Trey Gunn and Pat Mastelotto am brilliant musikere, certainly, all shall say her agree in that they able act, but the accord am barely equal bumper about what they have to intermediary.

Robert Fripp, grunnsten and legend, put her unnoticed down along with gitaren, beyond spotlighten and a prior audience has fylt local. Candle am yet lit in salen, as he put atmosphere along with a good deal the postion frippertronics. The band send for facts first cloth her at lastly- album, " in spite of the fact that Power Dates back to Believe", and facts am not taking high interval a prior concert svakeste link am letting her spur. Adrian Coat am because neither bumper vokalist, and as beep also am a bit poorest, becomes either "Happy Conform What You Garden Dates back to Be Happy Conform" or "ProzaKc Blues" any to rope aloud home about.

King Crimson in the year 2003 am best as they playing her with the enormous lydmassen they are capable to generate, and as they discard ballad along with ancient riff and resirkulerer lean idéer at "Lark's Tongues Set on Aspic" and "Discipline". Robert Fripp, as am shade by entire performance, subsequent at to make oneself cosy along with Coat befølinger and bash against vibratoarmen, but it is the Fripps own, classic Gibson-ytringer as send they the gravity historic the vibrations by salen. Audience am extreme starving at kongestoff, and as the band administers her after a little more than én concurrent, is it obviously not over.

Obviously not over.

15.11 Break from the first batch of werning Crim improvs. Lots of laughter & monster grooves from Rhythm Buddies of the Crim VII formation. ProjeKct Crim…

Boys With Toys 1…

The screensaver is of the last Crimson rehearsals, here at Studio Belew. Boys With Toys 2…

Boys With Toys 3…

Deja Vue…

18.15 The Team has left.

Best title of the day, and possibly of the year, comes from TLev. One improv featured a swishing guitar sound from the Lunar Module (actually, chord shots with the Skysaw 3 programme): TLev Title: When My Guitar Gently Sweeps.

Day One…

Bass Player In Hiding?…

Tony's book of Crimson Photos is being printed but will just miss our time here. Tony was hoping to personally hand us each a volume. TLev has also been helping my computing skills develop, as has Ken with software. A miniature Bluetooth module is now plugged into a USB port of the 15" Powerbook & files exchange between that and the 17" Powerbook.

More than three years later, and I’m still charmed and entranced by this three-minute gem. Who knows where this incarnation of KC might have gone? A full CD’s worth of these sessions is still at the top of my list for most-wanted DGM Live downloads/KCCC releases.
