5.1 Remaster Playback At Air Studio
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Fri., Oct 9, 2009

On Tuesday 6th October, Crims of varying vintage gathered in Air Studios to listen to selections from the new surround sound mixes. Following an introduction from Robert Fripp, Steven Wilson gave a short talk about his approach to remixing the KC catalogue.

Alongside journalists from the UK, Japan, Poland, America and New Zealand, Peter Sinfield, Michael Giles, Mel Collins, David Cross, John Wetton and Bill Bruford, and Gavin Harrison heard 21st Century Schizoid Man, Epitaph, The Court of the Crimson King, The Battle of Glass Tears and Starless. By way of a preview for next year’s series of 5.1 mixes, Larks’ Tongues In Aspic Part One shook the walls and rattled the windows.

It Was 40 Years Ago Today
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Tue., Mar 27, 2012
That Mel, Boz, Ian & Robert played in Boston supporting Yes with Bill Bruford still on drums. It was at this gig that Bill seized his opportunity to ask Fripp about meeting up and discussing some ideas once they were back in the UK.



Two months after this gig was recorded, in May 1972 Fripp and Bruford kept the meeting they'd promised each other to see what, if anything, might happen.

You can grab the concert via the mail order store.

And The Winner Is...
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Mon., Mar 26, 2012
Congratulations to Rick Mascarini of Milford Ohio. His name was picked out of The fickle fedora of fate and he wins a signed copy of Pat's Recidivate CD. You'll recall we asked folks to name that track from the album that included Robert's tale of the psychedelic trousers - it was (all together now) Brutal Ecstasy (with fuzzbox). Many thanks to everyone who took part. Keep your eyes peeled for another great giveaway later this week.
