Kennedy Centre

King Crimson
Washington D.C.
27 Jun 1974

The forgotten show. The performances before and after were recorded on multi-track, while all that remains of this show is a cassette of the front of house mix - presumably the tape that RF refers to in his diary "Shout at PW after gig for coming in with the tape..."[endtease]The tape (thank you, Peter Walmsley) is an incomplete fragment of seven tracks - justified by Easy Money ("fuzz solo v. effective" - RF's diary). Hearing this, a different diarist 30 years later observes “fuzz solo v. satisfying.” Just when you think it’s all over there’s a delightful improv spilling out of Easy Money featuring David Cross. For a few moments they create from thin air a beautiful tender ballad with a touch of Trio. As with many board recordings, the mix can be interesting. The end of Fracture almost becomes a bass and bass drum solo - interesting for students of John Wetton's playing.
