Ulster Performing Arts Centre Kingston, New York |
      Crim at their best January 12, 2006
Written by timohara
I attended two shows of this late 2003 tour (Boston and NYC) and this astonishingly confident performance reinforces my memories of a group at the height of their power. RF’s demented organ-grinder solo on Dinosaur is one great moment among many. Time stops in the middle section of "One Time" The Lark’s IV coda, as played here, has a poignancy not unlike the final statement of the Starless theme as heard live 1974. I’m sure some may disagree, but I don’t think KC played "Red" better live at any time in their history as they did on this tour. They nailed it here; the dynamics are perfect. Could not endorse this release more completely! Great choice.

This powerful music deserves the relative "permanence" of a hard-disc double-CD release (the entire concert, please, no editing). The concert is relentless from start to finish -- there are no dead spots.

Sid nailed it -- this show is savage. The best "Deception of the Thrush (aka Power to Believe III)" yet; Trey flattens the basement dwellers in the audience, then offers them redemption at the Read more

Agree with ziggyyoussef Sun., May 21, 2006
Posted by: danceofthedawn74
Ich bin mit dir einverstanden ziggyyoussef, in dem Trey Gunn und Pat Mastellato, im Vergleich zur Aufnahme Elektrik, ganz klar geworden sind.
I am also in agreement with you that the TPTB material really comes alive live and especially when played Read more
