 Ten Years After This Concert April 27, 2010
Written by stevieraygilbert
I never regretted not staying to hear Alvin Lee and Ten Years After after Crim left the stage. Yes, more than once I was asked why I hadn’t stayed to hear the famous blues/boogie speed riffer et al, having made the trip from East Dallas all the way to Ft. Worth. The thing is, I couldn’t reconcile the disparate musical styles of King Crimson "warming up" for Ten Years After. I went to so many concerts at that particular arena back in those days (including E.L.P!) I can’t remember exactly what bands I saw play on the same bill. Dim memories of Robin Trower during that same show want to surface, and I stayed to hear him if I’m not mistaken about him being on the program. But Ten Years After was definitely the headline band for the evening, which I’ll never understand. At least that explains all the talk about pickup trucks. I do remember one thing... the audience was too loud, not the band. And this was, indeed, the last time I saw King Crimson live in this or in any other incarnation. Still have the ticket stub.

Hello Craig, This is the entire setlist. I was at this show and Robin Trower opened, followed by KC then 10 Years After as the headliner. Funny thing is, each band’s current release on the charts reflected the exact Read more

Thank you, this is a very good upgrade. It is great to listen to ’Fracture’ without all of the conversation. My recording of this has a brief improv before ’Fracture’. Stormy did a great job with the bootleg recording, the Read more
