King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King (1969)

King Crimson In The Court Of The Crimson King (1969) @320
It was, quite simply, a sound that shook the music world. When King Crimson emerged from the dust of the considerably more oblique and largely absurd trio of Giles, Giles and Frippwhose one release, The Cheerful Insanity of Giles, Giles and Fripp (Deram, 1968), was aptly titlednobody
could have anticipated that this group would literally change the face of the pop world, and almost singlehandedly define a new musical genre: progressive rock. Crimson cofounder/guitarist Robert Fripp has, with a number of subsequent incarnations of Crimson, only partly been successful in distancing his flagship group from that stylistic
marker, but in many ways it matters not. As labels become increasingly meaningless, revisiting this seminal album reveals far more than any reductionist categorization can. Never mind previous CD issues claiming to be "Definitive Editions," "Original Master Editions" and "30th Anniversary
Editions." For the first time since its initial release, not just remixed but remastered as well in both stereo and 5.1 surround, the 40th Anniversary Series incarnation of In the Court of the Crimson King is the gold standard against which all previous editions will be measuredand, ultimately, fail. Crimsons entire original
discography will, during 2009/2010, be reissued in truly definitive editions, and based on this title and the parallelrelease of Red, its going to be a grand period of rediscovery and just plain discovery, with previously unheard details now audible, and a bevy of bonus tracks, alternate versions and video content made available, in many
cases for the first time.
