Statement re UMG & King Crimson
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Wed., Aug 15, 2012
UMG, the world's biggest record company has identified certain
"assets" the company is prepared to sell from the UMG & EMI
catalogues in order to get clearance from EC competition
authorities for UMG's purchase of EMI, currently the world's
fourth biggest record company.
It has come to our attention that among the "assets" claimed as
owned by UMG & listed for sale with EC officials are master
rights to recorded material by King Crimson.
UMG does not own or control any King Crimson recordings or master
rights.
A letter demanding UMG's immediate withdrawal of all claims to
represent or control any interest in King Crimson recorded
material has been sent to the company's CEO on behalf of King
Crimson, DGM & its licensees.

Larks' Tongues In Aspic Boxset
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Mon., Aug 13, 2012
The long-awaited 40th anniversary edition of the legendary Larks’ Tongues In Aspic quintet will be released on October 15th.
One of the key recordings in the King Crimson canon, and the only formal studio recording by the LTIA quintet, the 40th Anniversary Edition will be released in three separate editions to satisfy the merely curious and the expectant collector.
1. CD/DVD-A: CD: New stereo mix + selected audio extras – all new content.
DVD-A featuring 5.1 new surround mix, original & new stereo mixes in hi-res stereo, a full album of alt mixes by Steven Wilson & more than 30 minutes of unseen footage of the band live in the studio.
2. Limited edition Boxed Set:13CDs, 1DVD-A, 1Blu-Ray in 12” box with booklet & memorabilia. DVD-A content as above, Blu-Ray content as per DVD-A with further hi-res stereo material – all presented in DTS Master audio, 4CDs of studio content including CD of session reels featuring the first recorded takes of all pieces on the album, 1CD live in the studio, 8CDs of live audio restored bootlegs & soundboard recordings + 36 page booklet with an extensive new interview with Robert Fripp, notes by King Crimson biographer Sid Smith, album sleeve print, concert ticket replica (with code for further concert download) & band photo postcards – limited to initial orders, one pressing only to a worldwide maximum limit of 7,000 units.
3. 2CD: Complete original & new mixes with selected audio extras.
Whilst the clip of the quintet performing LTIA pt1 during the Bremen Beat Club recording has been available on the internet for several years in varying degrees of quality, there has been some fevered speculation as to whether the full concert would ever see the light of day.
Though it's been a long time coming, the full video of David Cross, Robert Fripp, John Wetton, Bill Bruford and Jamie Muir will now be seen in full. We hope all Crimheads agree that the waiting to get this in the best possible quality will have been worth while.
Pre-ordering details will appear soon.

Fripp Olympics
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Mon., Aug 13, 2012
The world of social media was ablaze last night to the news that Robert Fripp's guitar was featured in the closing ceremony for the 2012 Olympics when they played David Bowie's Fashion. You'll recall Fripp's guitar was also heard a fortnight ago in the opening ceremony when David Bowie's Heroes accompanied Team GB into the arena. In the words of Head of Deliverance, Ian Fletcher, So, that's all good then.
