Robert Fripp’s performance was indeed a little winded by the Roland Guitar Synth this night. There are two tunable distortion synths plus a master tuner which are all rotary operated knobs and therefore very easy to disturb on a dark stage. The GR300 synthesizer is not midi controlled, certainly not in 1982 and my own unit has numerous other eccentricities.

This was also my first KC gig some time after 3 evenings watching the incredible League of Gentlemen - at all of which Mr Fripp was most approachable.

All in, King Crimson played fabulous music, with a slight flounder during Sheltering Sky. I had no regrets over pawning my twelve gear racing bike to afford the ticket.

Now - Albert Hall 1995 is something else again.

It amazes me to come to this site on any given Monday and be able to receive yet another gift.  10 minutes of real, amazing music.  A ’run through’ that shows that, no matter in what stage this music exists, Read more

Simply beautiful...   Mon., Aug 13, 2012

I’m lost for words actually, and can’t thank you enough for this... On reflection, the bass playing from Boz on this one reminded me of Roger Waters, in a way... Read more

Haunting   Mon., Aug 6, 2012

After repeated listenings of this performance, I’ve encountered a unique moment in Loop II (without solo) at about 1:50 seconds into it, where a particularly haunting note sends me into another Read more

i went ahead and downloaded this concert, despite what others have said about it. it’s not as bad as they have made it out to be. With the exception of Improv #2, which is horribly scattered and leads Read more
