vincent gallo used a kc song in buffalo '66. I couldn't pay attention to the scene cuz I was breaking my brane trying to remember the name of the song ("moonchild").

these days somehow the first album seems the most classic and least dated of all of them, to me

Joe otm

Which sux, because theoretically, I'm still interested in KC. Fripp should hire Ruins or Orthrelm for the next incarnation of the band, as it seems he's wanted a really technical, more metallic band for a while. (and esp as those bands are a big reason current KC seems so not-that-interesting to me).

GET RID OF THE FUCKING CHAPMAN STICKS

They were at their best when Greg Lake was still in the group and Pete Sinfield still working closely with them.

Surmounter if you like Larks' and perhaps by now, Starless & Bible Black, you of course should cop Red which is the unbelievably heavy studio pinnacle of that line-up.

Most of all though, treat yourself eventually to some live recordings from this era. The newish release of what used to be called USA, now called Asbury Park 1974 (the USA version has overdubs, the new one doesn't), is just maybe the apotheosis of the Wetton era. As with only the very awesomest of live discs, listening to it I can't believe people actually sat in an audience and SAW THIS.

is that a download only from dgm? I can't seem to find the album

akm, Saturday, 9 June 2007 20:15 (sixteen years ago) link

Yep.

Rock Hardy, Saturday, 9 June 2007 20:28 (sixteen years ago) link

I think maybe it's been released on CDin one of these DGM 2-fers I've been seeing around... no?

Jon Lewis, Saturday, 9 June 2007 20:36 (sixteen years ago) link

Yeah, it's on Vol. 1 of the "Collectable King Crimson" 2-fer CDs (the other concert on Vol. 1 is "Mainz 1974").

Joe, Saturday, 9 June 2007 21:37 (sixteen years ago) link

Let's go off the beaten path and try

the nonreleased and improv tracks on Vrooom and Vrooom Vrooom

and get the Heavy ConstruKction album for the new songs and improvs

I can't remember the names of my favorite songs this way but
ccccSeizurecc, Uböö, Cage, and Blastic Rhino all seem to ring a bell

this is stuff you won't find on Thrak, The Constukction of light, and
The Power To Believe albums

I can't find a thread for the Discipline album.

Frame by Frame has endeared itself to my heart over the last couple of weeks big time.

nothing rocks me quite like "Red"

I'm really excited about The Great Deceiver being re-released now. I've wanted that for years, but not found it. As good as some of the studio albums are, they always (or at least since the Wetton years) were a better live group than studio band.
For those who're not familiar, TGD is a 4-disc collection of live recordings from 1973 and 1974. It's now being put out as two 2-disc sets, new packaging, but no changes whatsoever to the content of the discs themselves.

Have to admit that I would've preferred the original box being re-released as it was, as I'm not too fond of the artwork they go for these days. I also got the impression that the original liner notes are just included as a PDF this time, which is odd. But what the hell, the packaging and booklet is rarely of interest after the first day.

Larks Tongues in Aspic is nothing short of amazing. I feel/fear I might be going in to that Crimson phase I've been putting off for so long now...
