We've all seen the 12 minute youtube clip of Easy Money and improv....is there more of the concert footage out there? Was the entire performance filmed?
The close ups of Fripp are nothing less than amazing (it's the only video from this era that he stretches out and really plays---too bad the basic camera direction was so utterly unaware of what was going on...)

I suppose that if there is something mmore, than it should be included on the Red boxset coming up.
Aymeric??
my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.
The Red box came out last year and there wasn't any video footage included.Originally Posted by Trane
Now, the Starless box that is coming up does have another version of the French TV performance. I didn't see anything listed for the Central Park performance.
Plus the Starless Box is centering on the European shows too... so it's likely not going to be on that either.
Well, it seems the original footage has been lost and all that remains is what we know - "Easy Money" + improv in pretty good quality, and a brief excerpt from "Larks' Tongues II" shown in a TV show, in pretty bad quality. I wouldn't hold much hope that we ever get more.

The only other pro footage that may have survived from this era is the Midnight Special from 1973.
