    Man, I love this stuff......mayhaps it makes my review a bit biased, but then again, I think it makes me a bit more subjective.  If this sucked, I would say so.  This does not suck.  In a really big way.  Like an unleashed raging beast....ferocious in its beauty and beautiful in its ferocity, Crimso comes out of the blocks and delivers a classic performance.  Not for the faint of heart....if you don’t dig this era of the Crims, give it a wide berth.....if this floats your boat, then dive in.  Highly recommended....if Mr. Fripp posted every show from this era, I would happily download them all......there never was another band like this one.....whether that is a good thing or not is entirely up to the listener.

My favourite Crimson bootleg   Fri., Apr 6, 2012
Posted by: Kibitz
The hottest show from the hottest leg of the ’74 tour, and I’ve heard every available bootleg from this era. This is the one you need to buy. Bruford’s funkiest and most authoritative performance Read more

The previews sound great - I’d love to see this on CD!  I’ve got 3/29/74 (Heidelberg), 3/30/74 (Mainz), and 4/1/74 (Kassel) on my shelf.  See that big gaping hole in Read more

There must have been something in the air in Germany! This may be the most intense King Crimson recording I have ever heard. The enery level on this is through the Read more

WOW, excellent show. Really get a taste of Crimso on the road in ’74. Sound quality is excellent. Kicks the almighty booty. Best Dr. D I have ever heard. Bruford really shows that you can only play with Bill on Read more

A dynamic and funky performance   Sat., Dec 17, 2005
Posted by: rhammill
I still have no clue how many stars to give these things. Some highlights- Great Deceiver: One of only two (?) released performances so far. I haven’t listened to the one on ‘The Great Deceiver’ recently, but I recall feeling it Read more

4.5 stars actually   Mon., Dec 5, 2005
Posted by: pillbug
Just downloaded this to tide me over while waiting for USA to come in the mail. A great concert, excellent sound quality and musicianship. The vocals are a bit strained on the high notes of Great Deceiver but you can Read more

Another Great Night   Thu., Nov 24, 2005
Posted by: mflaherty
This is not the full concert, but don’t let that stop you; we should just be thankful for what has survived.  The band was burning that night, particularly John, who in his passion Read more
