1969 King Crimson packed a hell of a punch and hit an entire unprepared world with a giant wall of sound like no other band. The best thing about it, they were just getting warmed up

[talleman]

The mass distortion of the speakers just makes this track a monster.

[epitaph]

Man, that is insanely heavy for 1969.

[kelvynification]

I'm was there right at the front in front of Fripp... A life changing experience. No one had played this kind of music before.... GENIUS!

[robertorick]

Never thought I'd see King Crimson drawn like Peanuts characters. With his eyeless glasses, Robert Fripp resembles a grown up male hippie version of Marcie.

[theonemodifier]

This is what Hendrix heard and was blown away!

[SoupPersonUwU]

Honestly the sound quality makes this better in some ways.

[dirtyd]

Y’all did peanuts to it that is badass

[The_MightyFinn]

Jesus this sounds like a tank, just incredible

[eden_atomizer]

when I found out these recordings existed, I sacrificed what little money I had to buy them. Thank you sir.

'Politicians funeral pyre' - still so relevant today!

[glensansone]

This was the show Jimi Hendrix was at jumping up and

[keithchiv]

i saw them the day before, at hyde park with the rolling stones, and later that month where fripp was definitely sitting down and wearing his black crushed velvet trousers. they did such a great version of 'mars' with the effect of a strobe.

[sadobitch]

I faithfully believe that this is the badass song ever written.

[jamesha]

@1:44 look at those cartoon fingers go!

[tonystock]

I really love this recording. Greg Lake stands out a bit more and sounds a bit more like how he'd go on to sound in ELP than how he does on ITCOTCK. RIP

[houmm]

The playing on this, given it's live is out of this world. It actually sounds like the outtro music to the end of the world. It sounds like Armageddon played by the tightest musicians ever

[jamespuleo]

Well done !! Thanks for both the audio and the visual content !!
