These days we’re so used to the presence of Trey Gunn and Pat Mastelotto in the KC fittings and fixtures but back in 1995 they were still something of an unknown quantity for some folks attending KC gigs back then, as Robert Parducci illustrated on ET “I was a little surprised to finally see what Trey Gunn and Pat Mastelotto look like, since the other players are so familiar to me. A very energetic show from beginning to end. Everyone in the band seemed to be enjoying themselves, each in his own fashion...” Turning attention to the more established members of the troupe, Racheline Maltese noted that “Belew was less chatty than on Wednesday, but personable as always. He had a mishap with part of Frame by Frame, that he tried to correct, but just couldn't, but otherwise was flawless. I really like Frame by Frame so it kinda bummed me out, but in a strange way it amused me too. Fripp is just too good. Perhaps it is his economy of motion that makes his speed and skill so much more astounding, I'm not sure, but there were several times where I just had to stare incredulously, jaw open, at his playing. I am, as per usual, extremely impressed.” Part of this concert was first released as KCCC 5/6 and the improvisation in Thrak was used in This Night Wounds Time and THRaKaTTaK Part II from the THRaKaTTaK album.
