King Crimson "THRAK BOX" Live And Studio Recordings 1994-1997 (2015) Boxed Set

The double trio represented a more decided return to being an improvisational band after King Crimson's largely form-focused '80s incarnation, of which only one of its three studio recordings has, thus far, received the 40th Anniversary treatment: 1981's groundbreaking Discipline, which introduced an entirely different Crimson, featuring the group's sole remaining founding member (Fripp) and the only holdover from the '72-'74 group, (Bruford). But the double trio was still heavily predicated on structure—whether it was blistering instrumentals or some of the most radio-friendly songs Crimson had released to date—and so a box containing a large number of live recordings would simply have been overkill.

King Crimson: "On (And Off) The Road" Boxed Set 2016

Sometimes the best music—and some of the best bands—are those that come from the most difficult of births. When King Crimson co-founder/guitarist Robert Fripp had the idea for a new band after dissolving the last incarnation of the '70s-era Crimson lineups seven years prior, it was a completely new concept and, with the exception of returning drummer Bill Bruford, a totally revised lineup.

King Crimson "Starless-Live In Europe" Boxed Set 40Th Anniversary, 2016

Starless: Live in Europe also ups the ante by introducing something neither of the previous box sets had. In addition to the new stereo and surround sound mixes by Steven Wilson of the core album on which the box is predicated, Starless and Bible Black—already released in a two-disc edition in 2011—there are additional surround sound mixes of shows that were recorded in multi-track—specifically the Mainz, Pittsburgh (remixed by David Singleton)

King Crimson "Sailor's Tales" 1970-1972 Box Set 40Th Anniversary,2017

La inmensidad del material presentado en el Box Set "Sailor's Tales" abarca la era de la banda desde "In The Wake Of Poseidon", pasando por "Lizard", el "Islands", y terminando con el gran disco grabado en vivo llamado "Earthbound" de 1972.Es casi hasta lógico pensar que después de la tremenda formación que presenta una de las alineaciones más reconocibles de la banda, con Robert Fripp, John Wetton, Bill Bruford, Jamie Muir y David Cross, las alineaciones que anteceden al álbum "Larks' Tongues in Aspic" antes de 1973 hayan quedado eclipsadas por tremendisimos músicos y devastadores álbumes.

King Crimson " Larks' Tongues In Aspic" - Boxed Set 40Th Anniversary, 2012

The idea of a 15-disc box set to commemorate the release of what was, in 1973, a single vinyl LP clocking in at a mere 46 minutes might seem a tad excessive, but when you're talking King Crimson and the seminal Larks' Tongues in Aspic, it's a whole other story. Beyond being an important addition to the legendary progressive rock group's 40th Anniversary Series of new stereo and surround sound mixes from Crimson cofounder/guitarist Robert Fripp and guitarist/keyboardist/singer Steven Wilson-a bandleader in his own right, first with Porcupine Tree and, more recently, with solo projects including the recently released Get All You Deserve (Kscope, 2012)-Larks' Tongues in Aspi

King Crimson "The Road To Red" Box Set 40Th Anniversary, 2014


Commenting on the final live date on The Road To Red, Robert Fripp notes this was the first gig gig “since the 1969 Crimson where the bottom of my spine registered ‘out of this world’ to the same degree.”Between April and July 1974 King Crimson embarked on a tour of Canada and America which has come to be recognised as one of the most powerful series of concerts performed not just by Fripp, Cross, Wetton and Bruford but by any band of the era.
