Nope - its a good album but not worth that kind of payout. I love In the Court of The Crimson King - one of my fave album - but I couldn't justify buying the box set for it either.

I recently downloaded the MP3 versions of Red and ITHCOTCK and I must say I am disappointed with the quality of the downloads. I know they are derived from the original vinyl, but to be honest I don't think they used great gear to do this - imho.

Totally OTT except for the most ardent KC fanatic. I think Andre has ordered it. :)

NO! Too much twaddle, I'm sticking to the album.

King Crimson 'Lark's Tongues' is out on Vinyl end of the month.. Mines on pre-order :D

I'm a big King Crimson fan, but how many live versions of, say, Easy Money do you need? One for die hard fans and obsessives I think, plus the price will put a lot of fans off.
Any thoughts on the new incarnation of KC for 2014 with 3 drummers?

Nop cancelled my order ontop of that sent back the 'Larks' & 'Red' Vinyl re-issues..

My 'Larks' 14 disc, 40th anniversary Box set will be up for grabs pretty soon if anyone is interested..
