Written by nasmformyzombie

1973-74 Crimson recorded many (if not most) of its gigs via soundboard.  Given the fact that there are dozens of unreleased gigs recorded in this manner---and that demand for product from this incarnation of the band is still high---why release a bootleg?  Oh, I understand the historical significance of the last gig in Central Park in 1974 (poor quality audience tape released by the KC Club), but why release this gig?  1973-74 Crimson is one of my favorite groups of all time, but I for one refuse to indulge in this nonsense.  I will not plunk down my hard earned cash for this. Robert, give us the REAL thing, please.

Very short but very sweet   Wed., May 29, 2013
Posted by: jeffoaster
When you take out the Exiles fragment and the snippet of the second improv, this disc clocks in at under 40 minutes, which is a damn shame because it is so Read more

I’ve seen this gig listed as being in Dieburg, rather than Augsburg, and at a what sounds like a smallish venue. RF is low in the mix on this recording, indicating a small Read more

Love this German tour...   Sat., Apr 13, 2013
Posted by: jeffoaster
The concerts from the German leg of Crimso’s ’74 tour are all top notch, and all bring something special to the table. There are some interesting nuances to this show. There is nothing particularly special about the opening improv and Read more

A Testament to George Chkiantz   Thu., Mar 14, 2013
Posted by: syncopatico
Whenever I hear recorded evidence of King Crimson in 1973/74 I’m reminded of the superb audio recording/engineering talent(s) of George Chkiantz! Each instrument can be heard clearly in the overall mix: the guitar occupying its proper space, a full Read more

More please...   Wed., Mar 13, 2013
Posted by: jeffoaster
Judging by this performance and the Atlanta one the following week, Crimso were really on fire at this point - moreso than usual. While the sound quality isn’t pristine and has some occasional dropouts, it is certainly listenable Read more

Lovely   Sat., Mar 9, 2013
Posted by: myshadow
Now we have around five minutes of music from Starless And Bible Black, and these ’studies’ are lovely.  I too, am amazed these weren’t added to the 40th anniversary edition.  I know, often artists feel that the final takes are Read more
