Written by DeVito

Bit of a delayed reaction here since this was my very first DGM Live download, back in March ’06. Almost 3 years later I still find it to be a very enjoyable listen. “Easy Money,” “Fracture,” and the improv are the highlights for me and have been included in several of my homemade “best of” compilations. (DGM didn’t title the improv, so I’ve christened it “The Inner Cool of the Cheesy Drum Machine.”) Some of the early reviewers complained about the audio quality, but this is a very listenable, clear and spacious audience tape with a nice atmosphere. Well worth repeated listenings. --Chris DeVito

I don’t know if this is the same version of the Arlington performance that I sent to Mr. Smith, but I heavily flogged this concert to him in correspondence - sending both audio CD and FLAC versions to get his Read more

Of all the bootlegs posted, this is by far the best   Wed., Mar 15, 2006

I’m surprised at the questions on why this should be released.  In case no one read the description, there is a bit in Fracture that has never been released.  Plus there’s Read more

I also wanted to say that yes I like audience recordings to a point. The sound of this show is defintely very good. But audience recordings when it’s total muffled city or loud and arghhhhh or too distant or just Read more

The more soundboards available of this incarnation the better!  For those of us fortunate to witness this combo in action this show is an excellent representation of the fall ’73 tour set list and will serve until the Read more

A quite unbelievably good performance. Never mind the sound quality - the music quality will carry you through this without any problems at all. Wetton is on top form throughout. I’ve had this one on tape for years now, but Read more

While I appreciate and respect the comments and concerns of listeners who would prefer only produced soundboards of shows, I have found that there have personally been many wonderful musical experiences I have enjoyed throughout my life which I would have Read more

Soundboard Recordings, Please   Tue., Mar 14, 2006
Posted 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 Read more

Hi I was wondering are all the 1973 live soundboard and multitrack live recordings all used up. Those should be released first ( if theres any left) than you can profit off these cheap cassette tape recorders with built in Read more
