NICE TO HEAR THIS
Wow always dreamed what the early jams must have sounded like! Very interesting half hour. Sensing a little Talking drum in the middle there.
King Crimson Rehearsal (Whole Rehearsal Tape)
Presented here is the whole rehearsal tape from the summer of 1972.
The early days of a group are a process of discovery that combines the desire not only to find common ground but explore something outside one’s previous experience.
In the summer of 1972, as the new incarnation of King Crimson was finding their feet, they did just that in a number of rehearsal sessions.
This 30-minute improvisation between Bill Bruford, John Wetton, David Cross, and Jamie Muir but interestingly, missing Robert Fripp.
Arguably a Larks’ fraKctal, this recently discovered session reel highlights the way in which the players interact and float ideas as they conduct a musical conversation, developing the collective vocabulary they would hone and polish on tour later in the year.
Previously only released as an extract this is an exclusive download and is not included in the forthcoming 50th-anniversary edition Larks’ Tongues In Aspic.
Larks' Tongues In Aspic 50th anniversary will be celebrated with two comprehensive sets, a 2 CD / 2 Blu-ray set and a 2 LP on 200 gram vinyl one, set for release on October 13th, 2023.
