Although he claims he was never happy with the drum sound achieved at Wessex Studios, there's no denying that hearing Michael Giles work around the kit in such close detail is breathtaking. With just Fripp's acoustic and Lake's bass guitar as accompaniment Mister Stormy lets you about as close as you're ever likely to get to the recording sessions of a truly groundbreaking album. This is a must-have for fans of Michael Giles drumming and all fans of the first King Crimson album.

This track is available on Mr Stormy's next bumper collection. His fourth year of treasures from the murky, cavernous DGM archives, torch in hand, fedora upon his head is now available for download.

Frankly, I am hoping for another archival release from the ITCOTCK sessions with stuff just like this. Brilliant; thanks for allowing us to hear this.

My grandfather should be 105 by now but he died at 97. He was an excellent musician that could have been professional, but his family forced him to be an architect. He founded the first Jazz orchestra in Barcelona in 1927, called Tribu Universitaria and played sax (imported from the US as there were no saxes in Europe then) and violin, among other instruments. When he come home, I always played him some of my favourite prog music, he quite liked some of it, other bored him to death. Dispite hi...
