I have often said that I would buy every show of this Crimson’s Summer 1974 U.S. tour if they were all made available, and I still mean it. DGM is trying to oblige, which I appreciate dearly.
The band may have been exhausted and irritable in June/July 1974, but they never played better music. What sort of stellar inferno they tapped into to replace their ordinary human energies, I have no idea, but these performances are superhuman, and among the few where I can actually accept the notion of "channeling" other forces. Minor technical details are irrelevant. If you love this version of band, and are open to the possibility that something unusual was in the air and following the boys around in the Summer of 1974, then you’ll want all of these performances, as well, including this one.
Next, let’s have Cape Cod.
