Written by crimson_king22

I have this show on compact disk when it was released 5 years ago, and played it in my car for the first time the day it arrived in the mail, hotly anticipating the full versions of the improv and Easy $$.  The latter was outrageous, given that I am a fan of any Crimso use of the Hohner Pianet, also Fripp’s psychotic sustained fuzz guitar solo; but poor David Cross seems to gotten a little lost in the beginning of the improv.  He hits a couple of bad notes on the mellotron as the piece begins to unfold.  Otherwise, a good concert.

One question: did Fripp make any announcements to the audience that night?  The concert is pure music, with no Fripp banter.  Can anyone who might have been there remember if Robert Fripp said anything into the mic that night, and, if so, what did he say?

Thank you in advance.

Don’t hesitate - MP3 downloading was seamless; recording sounds wonderful; playing is fiery...  Put aside any concerns regarding audio quality or length of applause.  A $10 well-spent in my book. Kudos as well to the DGM crew for their work Read more

I haven’t heard the Asbury Park jam in a long time.  I have the vinyl, but the pressing was horrible!  The audio is relatively clear on this download.  The difficulty for me is trying to filter out Cross’ nonsense on Read more

Absolutely great and astonishing! Fripp, Wetton and Bruford at their best, better than in studio recs. Maybe Dave Cross a little in the shade, but anyway balanced in the general sound Read more
