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.

Not only is the performance wrought with tension, which means in this case the musicians are paying attention to each other, but the recording sounds as if the band is playing right in front of you in a small Read more

Just purchased this lovely little sucker today and cannot get enough of it. Crimson are in super-fine form at this Kokusai Hall show. The playing is extremely tight, with a very special aura of magic encircling Read more

In March of 1990, I was living - for a very brief period of time - in Poughkeepsie, NY when this tour came around.  I had absolutely no idea what, or who, The League of Crafty Guitarists Read more

LOVELY   Mon., Jul 25, 2011

Now this is indeed lovely in every way--including the recording quality, and the mix! I would say it’s Crimso ’cK’araoke time, but Ian’s flute soloing is too beautiful to sing over here: this definitely works as an (alternate) instrumental Read more
