From the mid-'90s on, a steady stream ... Full Descriptionof archival live King Crimson recordings began to appear, released by Crimson guitarist/leader Robert Fripp as the backbone of his independent cottage industry. This thicket of albums can be an intimidating proposition for the uninitiated, even though each one bears its own distinctive charms. For historical context, let's note that VROOOM VROOOM's two discs feature material from two separate stints in 1995 and '96 during which the band was exploring the "double quartet" concept. This format added second drummer Pat Mastelotto and "touch guitar" player (its nearest relative being Tony Levin's Chapman Stick) to the four-man lineup that led Crimson's '80s return to action.
While the necessity of these additions is sometimes questionable and/or inaudible, all members hold their own in the complex, gamelan-influenced latticework that the '80s Crimson inaugurated. The set lists are largely split between contemporary offerings and highlights from the band's three '80s albums, with impressive energy going into every performance. Some special, unexpected moments occur when the group launches into a chestnut like "Red" or "Larks' Tongues in Aspic" from the very different '70s version of Crimson, with surprising and exciting results.
Pat Mastelotto, Bill Bruford (drums. electronic drums, percussion).
King Crimson: Adrian Belew (vocals, guitar); Robert Fripp (guitar, electronics); Trey Gunn (guitar); Tony Levin (bass, Chapman stick);
Down Beat (2/02, p.68) - 4.5 stars out of 5 - "...Highlights the double trio at its finest, as they cover selections spanning the late '60s through the mid '90s....Fripp and Belew perform with a vengeance..."

All music written by King Crimson. All lyrics written by Adrian Belew.
King Crimson's dynamic live performances have produced many various bootleg tapes featuring all eras of the group's existence. Crimson's October 1994 tour of South America, however, yielded the only official bootleg, B'BOOM. Digitally recorded from the main house P.A., this double disc set captures the '90s era Crimson, the "Double Trio," in a most unique way. The recorded sounds are exactly how the microphones heard the performance, not how the audience heard it. This produces a very crisp, detailed live record with heightened realism due to ...

My path in putting the audio portion of this package together was a two-fold process. I am very, very picky about the running order. I will spend weeks on just this, trying out various things and tweaking it to get the balance and shape just right.The first running order I put together was made up of what I thought most people would take to be the best tracks from my 6 solo/band recordings, with some new material added. But when I listened through the finished arrangement it was good, very good, but ultimately not that satisfying to me, personally. It just wasn't what I really wanted to hear from the material.So, I took a second strategy: "Fuck thinking about what other people might take to be my best material. What do I want to hear on this CD? What are the most meaningful tracks to me? Just me, and me alone."And that's what I ended up with as a governing strategy. I listened through my whole catalogue, released and unreleased, and picked out the pieces that, personally, moved me the most. In some cases the choices aligned with the first running order, but in many they didn't.It was during this ...
