True, Robert Fripp seems to release a new "remastered" edition every 2~3 years or so of every King Crimson albums. So much that it starts to look like a retirement pension fund to me. But the recent CD (stereo) + DVD-Audio (Lossless 5.1) are truly adding to the experience of albums I already know by heart.

I'm slowly getting them all, 8 released so far, 10 supposed to be released in total:


(edit, 9th title revealed)

  • [KC SP 12] USA

(edit #2, 3 more titles revealed)


+



(final edit, last 2 titles announced)

Wow Julien,
Thanks for posting this info.
BIG fan of King Crimson.
Will be glad to help Robert Fripp and Adrian Belew with their twilight years pension fund !!!
After all, they have given so much to the world .............

Seen them solo and together with "the band".
Musical genius incarnate !
Nothing like their talent anywhere on earth

Missed them twice in Tokyo (tickets would sell out within minutes) but eventually caught them in Paris for the "Power to Believe Tour" on July 2003.

They almost cancelled the show because someone took a picture with flash at the beginning.

Tight security services but when the (peaceful) crowd got up and close to the stage for RED as a token of appreciation, Fripp told the guards it was okay.
We just wanted to see them playing up-close and we did!

PS: Adrian Belew needed the lyrics on a sheet of paper for "Happy With What You Have To Be Happy With" to get it right :-)

Awesome Julien,
Caught that same tour in 2003 on their Phoenix stop over.
Very personal venue with epic sound quality.
Could have cried it was so great to be at.
My buddy captured the "magic" on a DAT recorder.
He had the two mic's tucked into his hat on both sides.
Very memorable performance...... they even played "dinosaur" ......
Thanks for the thread, (and pics) brought back some good memories !

Double WoW !

May they have a good night of slipping the groove. Discipline at work - Discipline at its best.......
Hope they bring out "Burned by the fire we Make" ... that would NOT be a "shame" ....

Glad they added that second gig.
Excited for you Julien !
