A "romantic" revelation...

I'd just like to echo what Holger says below - the Mastelottos' Romantic Guide... is really VERY good. They're not "just" cover versions, but proper re-interpretations without losing either the spirit or, importantly, the TUNES of the original. And they are clearly done with "love" - which is, of course, appropriate! Heartily recommended - I've had it on repeat play for several days now!

William Koch Stadium Hamburg Germany

See above (below?)

Just what Jerry Smith has written - I though have the (dis)advantage to understand German - most of what is being describd as "chatty" is one very discontent person who disses KC halfway through all the quieter bits - especially The Sheltering Sky he refers to as "grausam" (horrible) and "fürchterlich" (dreadful) - gladly KC is loud enough most of he time to drown him out. One other person actually says "wir müssen dann nachher noch Genesis ertragen" (We'll have to endure Genesis later on.) - wtf? Why has he even been there? I like these boot recordings - they always give a distinctly different aural perspective. This is not the best I've heard, but surely interesting.

Crystal Ballroom Portland United States

A Phenomenal Night

The band was really on fire from the start this show. Too bad about the acoustics of the room but the download is warm and inviting in all the right ways. Virtuosity and inventiveness constantly bubble forth from the performance and it rages throughout. Pat is truly playing like a man possessed tonight and the rest of the band feeds off his energy. Highlights: Too many to count Negatives: None Buy this download in FLAC and treat yourself! This is amazing stuff!

Fripp & Eno, 21st of May 1975 at Theatre Monumental

Attendee account relayed

In conversation with Carlos Casares Pelaez, an employee of show presenters Gay (Mercader) & Company, he had this to say when asked to recount any memories of the event... "People expected to hear King Crimson and it ended up in chaos". This is further substantiated by an article written by Peter Leay for Enovations newsletter in 1975, which reports that someone was motivated enough to throw a tomato at the duo! Carlos also recalls that "several strange films" were projected during the performance. When asked to describe them further he said "I remember the horse in a house burning", which would be a reference to Malcolm LeGrice's Berlin Horse short film. He goes on to state that he remembers another one that depicted "a constant reflection of the Sun on the water". This additional film projected is of unknown origin. It may or may not be another film created by LeGrice, but certainly would have been thematically appropriate for the music presented.

Average quality sound because of recording devices...

Recalling B’Boom

Do not miss hearing this. If you ever think KC music is not of it’s time then here’s another fine example.

Warner Theatre

Love the Warner

My wife and I were in third row for this show and the sound was excellent. My first visit to the Warner was in the late 90's to see Penn & Teller. (I had a chance to talk with Penn and he denied being the bass player in The Residents!) I thought to myself "I would love to see King Crimson here." And my wish came true twenty years down the road.
