Also out in May, Panegyric's Collectable King Crimson series continues with Volume Four. This is taken from KCCC28 and features no extra tracks or information. So if you already have KCCC28 you don't need to pick up this volume.
Long term visitors to the site will know the difference between the KCCC and the Collectable series. If you're a newcomer round these parts then by way of explanation and clarification, here's the scoop.
It boils down to this: the KCCC titles are available mail order only. The Collectable King Crimson series makes selected KCCC titles available in shops and general retail outlets including all the major online ones.
Simple!
In the meantime here's the blurb for Volume Four.
Like fine wine King Crimson lineups seem to improve with age - at least that's what the fan reaction tells us. Each new lineup is embraced with enthusiasm accompanied by a little caution only to become, usually in retrospect, "the best KC lineup/tour/gig I ever saw...". The 90s double trio/sextet lineup was just reaching the point of mass acceptance when, in true Crim fashion, it was replaced with the leaner quartet lineup featured on this 2CD set.
Taken directly from the band's own dat tapes of the event 'Live in Warsaw' is an ideal companion to the simultaneously reissued 'Eyes Wide Open' DVD.
The Millennial Crimson packed a punch with a powerful set featuring material from the then recently released ConstruKction of Light album plus a selection of improvs, Crim concert favourites & an encore of David Bowie's Heroes.. (It was, after all, Robert Fripp who fashioned the ultra-distinctive guitar part on the original David Bowie recording)
