Yes, both gig and The Great Deceiver boxed set are beyond excellent.  However, I’m buying this download so that after 16 years I can finally hear the end of Starless - I’ve never found a CD player that could play the end of my Virgin CD1!  I presume the DGM pressing is better :))

I haven’t had chance to check it yet, but I notice that all but one timings given for the download are quite a bit longer than those given on the CD.  (Easy Money is 3 seconds shorter for some reason!)  Has there been a change of speed, or was there quite a few small edits on the CD version?  Or are all the timings just wrong??!

Nevertheless, if you haven’t got either version yet - what are you waiting for?  This is King Crimson at their absolute peak.

This amazing show is a testament of the power of the Wetton/Cross/Bruford/Fripp lineup. Their music brought together power and beauty (an exotic variety of beauty, that is). This show has also stunning sound Read more
