King Crimson -CC - Live in Philadelphia, PA , July 30, 1982

CLUB26 King Crimson Live in Philadelphia, PA July 30, 1982 ...to this pair of ears, of all the 80s, this performance from Philadelphia is the best yet. Why? Well, in a team-band like Crimson it might seem unfair to single out individuals but if pushed, I would have to say it was down to Adrian Belew. It's difficult to avoid his dazzling fiery presence on this outing.... Thela Hun Ginjeet packs a devastating punch; a knockout collision between on-the-fly improvisation and the canny judgement of what makes a good story great....Another highlight in this package is the inclusion of The Howler. This song didn't get too many public outings, so it's a pleasure to hear how blistering it is with Belew at his rat-scratching best. It'll come as no surprise when I say this version knocks spots off its studio counterpart. Sid Smith 1. Thela Hun Ginjeet 2. Red 3. The Howler 4. Frame By Frame 5. Matte Kudasai 6.
