King Crimson - One More Red Nightmare

Stormy Mundy Selection (Occasional Series - Acts of Random Archive Rummaging)

Alex 'Stormy' Mundy has once again mixed the Crimson timestreams, this time blending Crimson in Rome, 23rd July 2018 with John Wetton and Ian McDonald appearing from the Red sessions. Emulating the spirit of 1991's Frame By Frame compilation box that saw Adrian Belew appear on Cadence And Cascade and Tony Levin on Bolero, Alex comments, "Sax-wise, Mel (live) is panned right and Ian (studio) is panned left. I had to edit John slightly to fit the live version, but they certainly have played it very close to the studio tempo, and of course, the tuning is the same. The same with Ian, gently moving him to match."

I love that this already had 40 likes just seven minutes after it was uploaded. It's like there are all these King Crimson fans lurking on the Interweb waiting to pounce the moment a new KC becomes available. You have to love John's vocals. That was a very special time in the KC line up.

This is ridiculous …. Love it so much. ❤🎉

This riff. Dark and powerful. Wonderful track.

This never gets old. One of the all time best songs from one of the all time best albums ever!!

[lpsaugat]

The beginning of the song is my ringtone. Such a banger. And, I still enjoy it even after listening to it literally 1000s of time.

[Bonelessgrunge]

this has to be one of my fave bands of all time.

King Crimson...ALWAYS fresh even it's 50 years old

[tullfan]

It's amazing that such a complex song doesn't wash out and degenerate. It's a testament to the tightness and precision of all the players that it doesn't.

[JoaoFroes-rp]

There is no band like King Crimson!! Brilliant in 1974, brilliant in 2018!!!

[jasonbrogan]

I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase a boxed set of these Stormy mixes!

[andyboofon]

The word tight is a massive understatement if they were able to mix 2 tracks, nearly 50 years apart! Incredible to hear Bruford, then overlaid and gradually apparently handed off to one of the newer guys? Maybe mastelletto? Great to hear two saxs playing across 45-50 years as well sounded incredible. The fact it worked like some sort of improvisational counterpoint is a testament to a legendary band - keep em coming please Robert 🙏 🎉❤

[ChazZaldo]

Such an amazing track on an impeccable album. Please come visit Canada sometime, or don't. Have an awesome day everybody 🤘

[katskillz]

This is like the ultimate sample session where two far off incarnations of KC reach across via digital wormhole to augment one another. Shiver me timbers

[lapoelepoepoele]

Good show, frippilicious pentatonics!

Only cool people will look at the thumbnail and think the top left corner watermark says "Unregistered Hypercam 2"

[alasestrenamos]

Y en vivo y directo puedo asegurar que es todo un sueño!!!
Y no de color rojo!!!

[raimoroine]

As to my case, life would've been Much poorer without King Crimson, and Van der Graaf Generator... ☺
