Happy Birthday King Crimson
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Fri., Jan 13, 2012
January 13th is an auspicious date on the Crimson calendar, marking as it does the official beginning of rehearsals in the basement of 193 Fulham Palace Road. In 1969 the cafe was owned by Peter and George Calatychos although it has since changed hands. Crimson were there for two and half years. Since that time many fans have visited the cafe.

In 2011 Mark Ferraro, from Ozone Park, New York came over to London to make a pilgrimage to lots of buildings tinged with a bit of Crimson history. "I walked in the present day restaurant and went right downstairs without anyone questioning me and took some photos of this tiny space that once contained the sounds of ITCOTCK rehearsals. How the walls were able to take such thunder I can only wonder. Think of those lucky "invited guests" that were able to witness these young musicians and what was coming out of them in this tiny basement."

Here's some of Mark's photographs...

In March 2011 a Japanese TV crew filmed in the basement during the making of a documentary about In The Court Of The Crimson King. You can see some similar photographs of the basement over on the blog.
