Talk about a booking mismatch. I was among the Crimheads who saw this gig. This was a hot show. After we were treated to the coordinated intensity we loved from this band, the idea of hearing ’take it easy’ was almost comedic. The eagles were treated with some ironic ambivalence, the crowd was 50/50. Conversely, you could imagine the Eagles fans enduring King Crimson. The Eagles were ’the headliner’ and pretty much played to get off the stage. I have had this gig for years and now will buy the Stormy enhanced version. Thank you for another great memory.

Great show! I have heard several audience tapes/bootlegs of this show and it has always been one of my favorite KC performances of 1973. In general the recording sounds a little fast, much like the "Astral Navigation" Read more

I have this boot and love it. One of the all time great LTIA 1 performances and an overall stomper, corker, and howler of a show. I submitted my copy (with good-for-a-boot sound quality) to Read more

A must Tue., Nov 3, 2009
Posted by: gasmrv
For anyone who appreciates the ’72-’74 live Crimson, this is a must-have performance, even if Fracture and/or Starless are not included in this set. From start to finish this is most definitely a "hot date" and not a Read more
