What the teaser paragraph fails to mention - indeed it misleads by invoking Jobson’s name - is that the ’...Schizoid Man’ on this download IS NOT the one for which he performed the overdub found on the USA album [just reissued in stores]....................... The Schizoid Man appearing here was released on the 5-versions "Schizoid Man" CDep from 1996 and is indeed from the Asbury Park, NJ show. Reason enough in itself to download this masterpiece!......................................... (The ’...Schizoid Man’ found on the USA album was actually taken from the June 30th Providence, RI show [the day before the last show at Central Park NY]. As Cross disliked the perennial encore number "21st Century Schizoid Man", his performances during them, when viewed in the hindsight of the recordings, were often weak - Fripp felt the necessity to overdub a studio solo by Eddie Jobson over Cross’s part when the album was released. You can hear that same performance un-retouched with Cross in place in the ’Great Deceiver’ box set’s Providence section).................................But these extremely ball-busting (the Wetton-Bruford rhythm section!) live versions are to die for - check out the lengthy improv piece "Asbury Park"- Crimso fans cannot do without!!!

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
