Entrevista Robert Fripp

Audio Source 

Here we have the tenth show of this 1995 European Tour – While waiting for definitive notes from Sid the Smith, Stormy’s thoughts are as follows. Paris is great on any night, but with Crimson in town it’s rockin’ A good rendition of Discipline sets up the evening and we’re away!

His personal highlights were, yes you guessed it Discipline, a Solid Coda Marine 475, a Solid Red ( solid must be another drumming term) the Thrakking and a Funky People.Overall, a very good show

King Crimson "Zeleste, Barcelona" June 27, 2000

It's a fact that Barcelona is one of the most exciting cities in Europe and it's also a fact that King Crimson is one the most exciting bands in concert. [endtease]So, put these two incontrovertible facts together and we have ourselves a show with a real "Wow!" factor. This is King Crimson on take-no-prisoners mode at a sell out gig in a city they last played 18 years ago

King Crimson "Live in Argentina" 1994 CLUB47 - 2012 Collectors' Club

As any fan fortunate enough to have seen the double trio lineup will tell you – even by King Crimson’s high standards – this was a spectacular live band. While a return of King Crimson had been planned as early as 1990, it was only in 1992 that the idea of a double trio line-up emerged as the ideal and it took until 1994 to get all the necessary musicians and plans sufficiently in place.

King Crimson "Live in New Haven, CT " 2003 CLUB44 - 2011 Collectors' Club

You know it's been one hell of gig when Robert Fripp gets off his stool, wanders centre stage and says "It's exceptional nowadays that I step to a microphone and say 'good evening, Hippies', but at the completion of this stage of King Crimson touring in America, perhaps something more is needed." At which point he holds up a bra that's been thrown onto the stage during the show and then proceeds to give away the undergarment with a KC trivia quiz! - Sid Smith.

King Crimson "Rehearsals & Blows" 1983 CLUB42 - 2016 Collectors' Club

Taken together with The Champaign-Urbana Sessions (CLUB21), the work-in-progress sketches, outtakes, bright ideas, dead-ends and cul-de-sacs gathered here provide a kind of counter-factual, alternative history to King Crimson’s catalogue; a shadow album that traces those points where things came together or fell apart in the trying, where ideas either bloomed or withered

King Crimson "Live in Milan" 2003 CLUB39 - 2008 Collectors' Club

"That is what makes this such a great show. The light and shade within the set, the dynamics within the numbers themselves and the thoughtful pacing of the different numbers. This isn't a band going through the motions. This is a band with no passengers, actively listening to each other, taking risks and working with each other to push boundaries" - John Kimber.

King Crimson "Live in Philadelphia PA" 1996 CLUB38 - 2008 Collectors' Club

Despite having played over 150 gigs, and released four albums it was all over far too soon as the double-trio King Crimson came to Philadelphia - a city which had seen some storming performances in the past - to give its final performance in front of an audience.

King Crimson "Live at the Pier, NYC" 1982 CLUB37 - 2008 Collectors' Club

At the end of the summer day, the boisterous young NYC area rockers lined up to file onto Pier 84, jutting out hundreds of feet into the Hudson River. As we faced the stage, and Hell's Kitchen and Midtown Manhattan, the sun was setting behind our backs over the New Jersey Palisades. Larry Snead (interviewed by Sid Smith).

Projekct Two "Live in Chicago, II "1998 CLUB33-2006- Collectors' Club

"Good solid show tonight. Park West is a fantastic venue. The sound is always great. Plus, Chicago audiences are always very up-to-date with what we're doing. When we walked on stage tonight we had the feeling that everyone was with us. And in fact, I think a lot of the audience had already heard the CD." Trey Gunn.

King Crimson "Live in Munich "1982 CLUB32 -2006- Collectors' Club

Tight, complex, startling and sonically ambitious, this was a King Crimson full of energy, the embodiment of what Rolling Stone magazine critic Chip Stern had in mind when he declared "Crimson creates a new kind of electronic string music that achieves an orchestral density without resorting to ersatz art-rock bombast." Sid Smith.

King Crimson "Live at the Wiltern"1995 CLUB31 -2005- Collectors' Club

Fripp believed the Wiltern gig to be a major show and wanted to release it straight away. Belew agreed and a mix was partially completed but the tapes were lost. The planned record was shelved; superseded by B'Boom and the all-improv album, THRaKaTTaK.

King Crimson "Live in Warsaw" 2000 CLUB28-2004- Collectors' Club

I love Poland. And I'm not entirely sure why. I remember this feeling when we were here with the double trio. There was an incredible warmth. Perhaps it is Chopin, one of the classical composers who's music I most identify with. I don't know The venue tonight was doing a long run of Peter Pan. We just came in for the two nights and then they would go back to their Peter production. What this meant was that all of the stage props were behind us and just off the stage. There was the giant crocodile and the pirate ship and all sorts of other strange things.....Trey Gunn

King Crimson "Live in Philadelphia, PA" 1982 CLUB26 - 2004-Collectors' Club

Of all the 80s, this performance from Philadelphia is the best yet. Why? Well, in a team-band like Crimson it might seem unfair to single out individuals but if pushed, I would have to say it was down to Adrian Belew. It's difficult to avoid his dazzling fiery presence on this outing.... Thela Hun Ginjeet packs a devastating punch; a knockout collision between on-the-fly improvisation and the canny judgement of what makes a good story great....Another highlight in this package is the inclusion of The Howler. This song didn't get too many public outings, so it's a pleasure to hear how blistering it is with Belew at his rat-scratching best. It'll come as no surprise when I say this version knocks spots off its studio counterpart. Sid Smith
