      a Krautrock Crim! October 26, 2010
Written by Neumann
Maybe it’s the bongo drum sounds (samples?), or the Michael Karoli vibe in Adrian Belew’s guitar repetition, but I hear something resembling classic Can at work here...of course some of those more subversive early ’70s German bands were Thrakking long before the word entered the Crimson vernacular. In retrospect I wish the double-trio had played more music as informal and open as this: a definite gem from the vaults..!

Muiresque Noise Last Archive Sat., Aug 23, 2008
Posted by: Anonymous
One of the best, if not the better archive of The Mighty Crim in 1973, this show is marked by the full energy that it has.
It’s clear that the band was in full form that night, Read more

Not So Great Recording Sat., Aug 23, 2008
Posted by: ScottM
I’m sure it was a lot more fun in person with big waves of electric noise hitting people. On this, which sounds like a soundboard recording, as per usual for those, there’s not much energy, the drum sound is unappealing, Read more

I have seen Crimson every show since 1974. The two shows in Philly were the best I have ever seen/heard. If you were not one of the lucky few to catch them on this abreviated tour, at least this will Read more

Having been at this show it’s interesting to compare the memory of the experience with listening to this recording. The front line is hung out to dry a bit in this Read more

Disappointing Fri., Aug 22, 2008
Posted by: tmansrp

I was at the 8/17 show in New York and was very satisfied. I did, at the time, feel like the guitars were too far back in the mix, though the sound overall was nicely Read more

So, for the first time since 1995 I’ve missed a King Crimson ’tour’. The Park West is a fantastic venue for the band, but a prior commitment to a family trip prevented me from Read more

The Big Crim Fri., Aug 22, 2008
Posted by: JPrisco
All right then; we see the pattern: those who have not heard this lineup find this to be fantastic, and those who have heard/seen shows later than this find it to be lesser than what they have already Read more

Do not hesitate to buy this show--the sound quality is superb and the "new" take on old favorites is a delight. But let’s hope (and lobby!) for a hotter night. I was at the 8/12 Keswick show and this one Read more
