I’ve nothing to add to the other superlatives here, but I want to note one thing about this recording that no one else seems to mention: David Cross’s mellotron was largely missing in action for much of the evening. It is audible, but barely. Whether this was because of a problem with the "Tron, or with the microphone (or something else entirely), I don’t know, but I just thought I’d mention the fact.

A Dream come True   Fri., Jan 5, 2007

I think myself incredibly lucky and priveliged to have been at this concert. It was a superb experience on the night as indeed was every Glasgow concert. I have always wanted a recording of that night ever since Robert told Read more

Perfecting in Perfection in Perfecting ...   Tue., Jan 2, 2007
Posted by: landru141
I’m often asked why I collect certain band’s live material.  Why, for example, would you want multiple shows of the same band playing the same songs from the same tour?  But, the truth is only a few bands have that Read more

Crisp, precise   Sat., Dec 30, 2006
Posted by: Hagiasophia
The sound quality is so deliciously good!! Everyone sounds like they’re where they are, not smacked on a single sheet of paper but in living, moving colour. You can hear the many subtle different tones and voices David will express on viola Read more

I love this music!   Sat., Dec 30, 2006
Posted by: jescalera
I was born in 1960 in a small city in Spain. In 1975 I discovered "Larks Tongues in Aspic", for me it was a shock. Even now it is one of my favorites recordings Read more

Sweetness!  Some scurge blisterment in here!  I love the middle section of Fracture.  Nice risky portions on a live setting.  A must buy for the fans.  I cant wait to drop this on a cd and go for a Read more

Merry Christmas for all   Sat., Dec 23, 2006

Crim heads! Speaking for the ’completists’ among us, it’s great to have whole shows of excellent sound quality. Another early version of Fracture with a different improv bit than Arlington is much Read more

Live at the Apollo   Thu., Dec 21, 2006
Posted by: mjboyce
Best live renditions of Larks Tongue in Aspic material that I’ve heard, particularly Larks Tongue Part 1, Talking Drum and Larks Tongue Part 2. I do prefer, however, the guitar solo in the Jesery (Asbury Park) version of Easy Read more

Thanks to DGM for this Christmas gift... The sound is fantastic (as good as on "Asbury Park") and the complete show is really fantastic with energic improvs through that Read more

Of the Highest Musical and Sonic Quality   Mon., Dec 18, 2006
Posted by: mouthface
There is nothing completely mind-blowingly unique to this concert (except CAT FOOD!...and the fact that the sound quality is about as good as Night Watch!!), and if you have The Great Deceiver you’ve got about half of this concert Read more

Performance and Sound are both Pristine   Mon., Dec 18, 2006
Posted by: halbie
This is a home run in all respects, particularly the sound quality (even at MP3) I’d put it on any "must have" KC list. The work-in-practice Fracture is worth the price of admission by Read more

Random Blast from the Past
Here we see BP Fallon and female friend.  Described by Bono as, ahem, “the only white black man I know apart from Bob Dylan”, Beep wrote about KC in 1969 music press, going on to become press officer at EG and later providing services of one kind and another to a stellar cast of rock gods.
