Casino Asbury Park, New Jersey |
 Concrete cavern July 13, 2011
Written by NotoriousA
I was there for this show, at the Casino. I took a bus by myself from north Jersey. It was general admission, with no seating on the ground floor. Though at the front end of the line, I opted for an upstairs center first row seat to enjoy a panoramic view and stereo sound. One outta two wasn’t bad. The view was great but the acoustics in the concrete cavern were terrible and I regretted not being closer. Nonetheless this was my only regret. I’ll always remember Bill’s drum roll and rim shot, starting the funk-driven improv instead of an anticipated free-form one. Fripp sitting in the dark the entire show, no doubt pretentious to some but cool to me. A beautiful Exiles. The suprise of the Mellotron at the last ascendance of Fracture. I still love the Mellotron! And Starless heard for the first time. There was only one way to descibe that moment: King Crimson. Nostalgia ain’t what it used to be, but nonetheless I thank Fripp and DGM for these exhaustive archive releases.

Excellent but for the sound Sun., Mar 19, 2006
Posted by: GregK1
Great performance, but the sound quality really does detract from the overall quality. It is hard to hear the bass at times. This is comparable to the Zoom club 2 disc KCCC set in that the band performance must be Read more

I am a big lifelong King Crimson fan. The "Red" period lineup of Fripp/Wetton/Bruford/Cross is by far my favorite. This performance of that lineup is instrumentally and technically as good as it Read more
