    Yeah, I ended up editing with the copy to break up the quotes.

    I have, so far, listened to most of the first disc of the Larks box set. At this rate, I will have listened to the whole thing by February 2013.

    So how is it?

    What the box set format does is make one engage with the material in a context. So, I'm on the first show, which is the only one I had before, but I'm more aware now that this is one of the first performances by this line-up.

    Lots of random thoughts so far. Some of the improvs on disc 1 show a continuity with the early 1972 line-up. Some of the improvs are also not very good! We idolise this band, but they're still finding their way.

    Some reviews have pointed to Jamie Muir as the revelation, but for me, it's Cross who stands out so far. It also occurs to me that while Bill Bruford very much saw himself as the apprentice, he was surely the most famous person in the band after Fripp: Close to the Edge has just gone top 5 on both sides of the Atlantic!

    The new Crimson will be ProjeKCt Non-Crim, all the musicians considered or invited to join, but who were never told the secret handshake: Judy Dyble, Elton John, Jimmi Hendrix, Keith Tippett, David Sylvian.
    I think the subtext is rapidly becoming text.

    We don't use post counts here. For PE it's about quality not quantity so we are not going to count them. Counting often inspires people to post more to bolster their rank. We plan to skip that.

    Oh yes, if you want to see a Forum Gone Wrong, look at ProgArchives' 'Shred' rooms. They exist for the sole purpose of increasing someone's rank. We're all people here. No need to feel inferior or superior based on how much someone else has posted nonsense.

    LOL I tried to post less, so I wouldn't exceed my weekly post limit. But really, I'm just typing this to test the quote feature

    Well having read the three pages of this thread, this one misses the mark by a wide margin

    Not that my post will raise the average level of this thread


    Anyway, I'll see if I can compare the 30th remaster and 40th remix tonight
    my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.

    Well, I really dig the 5.1 mix of LTiA.

    Yes, the 5.1 is great, but so is the new stereo mix. The title track may just be my favourite track on any of the KC remasters so far.

    Yeah, I got the standard 40th Anniv version with the CD/DVD thing (I only bought Red previously and heard the debut bonus alt tracks

    But the 40th LTIA is superb (well in terms of bionus...don't have a 5.1 system) ... I'll start a thread about it ASAIC.

    Had my hopes up for a second! Dashed!

    KC news that would really make my day is to hear about a new album


  23. #23
    I am eagerly awaiting the ten disc set of "Groon" outtakes.

  24. #24
    Not KC, but the Travis/Fripp album has been released. I ordered mine at the beginning of October from DGM Live, so I should receive it in a few months.
    I want to dynamite your mind with love tonight.
