King Crimson: Sheltering skies/Live 1982 [Gatefold / 2 Vinyl LP]

Efter att ha avslutat den första omgången av konserter med de återupplivade King Crimson i maj 1981, begav sig Robert Fripp över till USA för att framföra några av sina berömda Flippertronic-konserter. Dessa föreställningar är inspelade i New York City mellan juli och augusti 1981, i Washington Square Church. Mixat och producerat av David Singleton från ljud restaurerat av Alex R. Mundy. Vinyl 2LP.

Between April and July 1974 King Crimson embarked on a tour of Canada and America which has come to be recognised as one of the most powerful series of concerts performed not just by Fripp, Cross, Wetton and Bruford but by any band of the era.<br/> <br/>The band, who had been rarely off the road - except to record studio albums - chose to perform a selection of recent material from the then newly released Starless And Bible Black, older fan favourites, newly written/then unrecorded material & nightly improvisations at a level described by many eye-witnesses and observers as "the most intense" gigs they'd ever attended.<br/> <br/>A single live LP "USA" was issued in 1975, a year after the band split but failed to convey the full extent of how ferocious a beast King Crimson was in full-flight. No other band blended powerful rock with an ability to turn in epic improvisations of immense subtlety or strength.<br/> <br/>Many of the shows on this final tour had been recorded, either professionally to multi-track tape, or on the band's stereo cassette feed from the mixing desk. These remained unheard until 1992 when selected highlights were released in 1992 on the 4 CD boxed set, The Great Deceiver. <br/> <br/>Now The Road To Red offers a comprehensive overview of this final tour and at last does justice to a group who were operating at the very height of their powers.<br/> <br/>Every soundboard quality recording known to exist is presented with audio fully restored, all released on CD for the first time. There are also five complete concerts, drawn from multi-track recordings, alongside the restored audio bootleg of the band's final show from New York and a new stereo mix of "Red" by Robert Fripp and Steven Wilson undertaken in 2012.<br/> <br/>A total of 16 concerts are featured across 20 discs, with the studio "Red" as the 21st CD.

Albumet är fortfarande ett av det tidiga 1980-talets nyckelalbum och ett av King Crimsons mest populära. King Crimsons studiotrilogi 1980-talet är en klassisk period, spelets krångligheter och detaljerna i kompositionsstilen har ett avgörande inflytande på subgenrer som matematikrock.
