Playlist Question

Can I make a playlist from the King Crimson studio albums? If so, where can I find them? I can't see to find them on the site. Thanks in advance for answering this question.

Alex Mundy replied:

Dear Chris, If you are a 1000 Club Member your playlist can include tracks from the studio albums. If you go to Discography and select ”King Crimson” at the top, you will find the studio albums listed. As you move the slider at the top, more albums appear.

1,000 Club Update

Dear DGMLIVE, I am so thankful to you for these updates/upgrades for the 1,000 Club Members. I have personally been one of these members for quite a while, and find the money spent so very worthwhile. I will always continue to support the DGM Business model, as I believe it is designed with the audience/fan in mind. So, I will look at creating a playlist, as I love KC and all things related to King Crimson. On another note, the new Uncut Curator's Edition is brilliant and so packed w...

80s vinyl

Any possibility of a re-release of the 80s trilogy on vinyl. If not, would you please remove the blurb mentioning it from the home page?

Alex Mundy replied:

Dear Jonathan, The three King Crimson albums from the 1980's are all available on vinyl from the advertisement on the home page. If you click on the buy now tab, in the UK , I did see that they are sold out in the U.S, so I will contact Amy to see if she has these on re-order.

Alex Mundy replied:

Dear Jonathan, Sadly there is no more 80's vinyl from Inner Knot, but as I mention above Burning Shed does have them, starting here. https://burningshed.com/king-crimson_discipline_vinyl

Book Of Saturday in Saarbruegen

"it’s interesting that after a few bars, Book Of Saturday is halted. It’s not clear why at this remove, but when it restarts, it’s about as perfect a reading of the song as you could possibly wish for." John muffed the lyrics at the beginning. They were, of course professionals, Started again and it was lovely to the end. This capture is a jewel.

King Crimson, 12th of June 1973 at Midnight Special

Perfect Small Performance

This performance has recently been uploaded to Youtube on The Midnight Special channel, and watching it, its great. Easy Money is uses the perfect short "Improv" section. Larks' Tongues In Aspic, Part Two is the perfect balance of abridged without losing its charm. Only one complaint, that there isn't more!

Winter Land

Winterland

For the record, the name of the venue is the "Winterland Ballroom", or more commonly, simply "Winterland" (one word), and was one of Bill Graham's storied Bay Area music venues. As for the show, as hinted in the blurb at the top – John Wetton is a beast. Wow. Less one star for the so-so recording

LOVE IT, TOO

I completely agree with what Allan G Okada said previously. Lizard has been mislabeled as somewhat of a failure IMO. I think it was immeasurably important in the evolution of the band as it was the first real test with Robert at the helm. He was only 24 at the time and had lost his primary writer. There must have been extraordinary pressure placed upon him considering in those days two releases/year were contractual obligations. It was a huge step forward and the quartet was quite complime...

Two Loop III's?

Dear Paul, The second Loop III is with the audience bootleg added underneath the 1/4" master loop, so the audience can be heard at the end of the loop, which then runs into the RF dialogue.
