Written by JackK777

It was a very funny situation cause I wasn’t a fan of the earlier KC (the only thing I’d heard was "Court of the Crimson King") and I went because it still sounded like a cool thing to do and friends were going. The opening act was a one hit disco wonder named Gino Vanelli. The place was packed with frat and sorority kids there to hear him and when he was done, they all left. And good riddance. That left no more than about 150 of us freaks sitting cross legged on the floor of this gym, and mesmerized by the dual mellotrons and David Cross’s violin and of course Fripp’s guitar. It was utterly magical. Certainly among the best concerts I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen a LOT of good concerts...

Merry Christmas for all   Sat., Dec 23, 2006
Posted by: acampo
Crim heads! Speaking for the ’completists’ among us, it’s great to have whole shows of excellent sound quality. Another early version of Fracture with a different improv bit than Arlington is much Read more

Live at the Apollo   Thu., Dec 21, 2006
Posted by: mjboyce
Best live renditions of Larks Tongue in Aspic material that I’ve heard, particularly Larks Tongue Part 1, Talking Drum and Larks Tongue Part 2. I do prefer, however, the guitar solo in the Jesery (Asbury Park) version of Easy Read more

Thanks to DGM for this Christmas gift... The sound is fantastic (as good as on "Asbury Park") and the complete show is really fantastic with energic improvs through that Read more

Of the Highest Musical and Sonic Quality   Mon., Dec 18, 2006
Posted by: mouthface
There is nothing completely mind-blowingly unique to this concert (except CAT FOOD!...and the fact that the sound quality is about as good as Night Watch!!), and if you have The Great Deceiver you’ve got about half of this concert Read more

Performance and Sound are both Pristine   Mon., Dec 18, 2006
Posted by: halbie
This is a home run in all respects, particularly the sound quality (even at MP3) I’d put it on any "must have" KC list. The work-in-practice Fracture is worth the price of admission by Read more

Another Amazing Revelation!!!   Mon., Dec 18, 2006
Posted by: LouieB
Like their June 1974 gig in Asbury Park NJ, King Crimson’s gig at the Apollo in Glascow, Scotland on October 23, 1973 has gained legendary status. Part of this concert was used in the band’s classic 1974 release "Starless and Read more

Brilliant sound!   Sun., Dec 17, 2006
Posted by: cuicawrangler
It is indeed great to have this legendary set. What’s more, as I now have a truly unseemly amount of disk space (for an iBook, at least) this was my first adventure in Read more

I have been waiting for any Glasgow show to be available. This is superb, especially as I was at the gig. The atmosphere was incredible, the playing awesome and this download captures it Read more

saving the bad clams for after the show   Mon., Nov 13, 2006
Posted by: emperornobody
Oh, my. Why didn’t I get this sooner?  They are en fuego.  The part of Asbury Park edited off of USA is so funky I hurt my shoulder head-bobbing to it on the Read more
