    Damn. You really should have made that joke about "Sheltering Sky" or "Seizure" instead.

    Seems they've added "Peace-An End" to their sets.

    I've never cared much for the versions with words, but they do nail that one.

    I noticed that Mellow Records has a lot of stuff on Bandcamp, and one thing they have is KC Live in Albany 2014. WTF? Sounds like a boot.

    Doctor Moroni must be reading PE these days. It was there when I posted that. Mellow has a lot of other live bootlegs for sale on Bandcamp. Very strange.

    Wish I knew that, too -- but only as far as Three Of A Perfect Pair goes.

    Beat can stay stereo and un-remastered as far as I care.

    If that's Mellow Records in Italy, I'd be wary.

    2 Slow Groove
    3 Funk Groove
    4 Sleepish
    5 Slow Sleepless
    6 An Entry Of The Crims
    7 Sacramento

    15 Shidare Zakura

    Adrian Belew - guitar
    Robert Fripp - guitar
    Tony Levin - bass guitar & Stick
    Bill Bruford - drums

    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.
    Speaking after the release of Three Of A Perfect Pair in 1984, Bill Bruford commented upon the album that took the group a year not so much to make as it did to find. “It did take quite a while...It’s kind of the fourth album with this version of the band. You see, we recorded one LP and more or less dumped it. We couldn’t quite see the way it was working out. When we reconvened the problems we had just evaporated! Sometimes, time is the only thing you need. Just to get away. And then suddenly the project was on its feet again and we knew where it was going and what to do.”

    More Live release news

    It’s a fabbo-to-the-max, triple whammy of a day for King Crimson fans. Not only is the first in-concert download by the current line-up now available via DGMLive, a mail-order only, 2-disc official collectors bootleg edition of the gig will be released on the 17th March.
    If that’s not enough, then how about a full live album gathering together the complete King Crimson setlist compiled from numerous nights and selected performances. In response to overwhelming demand for video of the group’s shows, the multi-disc set will come with selected in-concert footage.
    This major release will be made available to coincide with the start of King Crimson’s return to live performance later in September 2016.
    If you don’t want or can’t wait until March or September, you can download King Crimson’s performance at Toronto’s Queen Elizabeth Theatre on November 20th, 2015 today. A superb example of the band in full-flight, it features some of the best-loved pieces in King Crimson’s catalogue as well as new material such as Radical Action To Unseat The Hold Of Monkey Mind and Meltdown. You can download it here right now.

    http://www.dgmlive.com/archive.htm?artist=35&show=2011

    This Official Collectors’ Bootleg captures King Crimson on a single night in the middle of the band’s Canadian tour in November 2015. With the exception of one small edit following an announcement before the band take the stage, the running time of this concert is exactly as it was heard in the hall by those fortunate enough to have been there. Even by the high standards set by King Crimson’s current line-up, this concert was agreed by all involved to have that extra special ingredient, making it the perfect choice when seeking an official release to counter the poorly recorded bootlegs that have begun to circulate.
    Featuring the recorded debut of new material such as Meltdown & Radical Action, the three drummer percussion pieces Hell Hounds of Krim & Banshee Legs Bell Hassle & a variety of King Crimson classics – including material from In The Court Of The Crimson King performed & recorded live for the first time in decades, a return to the live set of Easy Money for the first time since 1974 & more recent powerhouse pieces such as Level Five & VROOOM – all material that the seven piece King Crimson has made very much its own in an absurdly short time of touring.
    The first release by the current band was the 2014 mini-album, “Live at the Orpheum”. This autumn, they will be releasing their long-awaited and much anticipated first major album – a comprehensive live release, taking the best performances of each song from the extensive set list (which changes nightly) & also including footage of selected performances. It will be released to coincide with the band’s 2016 European tour, which begins in the UK with two concerts at the Waterside Theatre in Aylesbury on September 4th & 5th, the band’s only UK dates for 2016.
    For those who cannot wait until the autumn, this Collector’s Edition makes the perfect teaser.
    The first full concert release by the current line-up of King Crimson will be released via mail order on March 17th. You can pre-order here:

    So it leaves out one of the new tunes in favor of (sigh) Court and Epitaph. How characteristically perverse.

    Yeah, I know it's based on quality of the performance more than the setlist. I know I'll want it in some form, but don't quite know which.

    Naturally you can't get everything with a single show release. But it sounds like we will get everything on the September release, so best of both worlds.

    Just bought the concert as a DGMLive download. 10$ seems a pretty good deal for a complete show. And it's the right setlist as far as I'm concerned. Yes, one of the new songs is missing, but all the classics I want are there (I've heard far too many "LTiAII" to bother at this point).

    Also in the pipeline :

    That's a pretty good idea (and nice of them to let us know what's being planned). Probably the thing that's tilting me toward the download this time, too.

    Having been at the show this is great news - it felt like a killer show on the night and nice to see somebody agrees with me.
