King Crimson "Cap D' Agde" (1982) CLUB4 . 1999-Collectors' Club

The 4th Collectors' Club release (April, 1999). From the 26th August, 1982 performance at Cap D'Agde, France.Robert describes this show as “very good”; a classic bit of Dorset understatement. This being Crim we celebrate heroic brown moments too. During a crackling version of Neil And Jack And Me, the heat-seeking fingers of everyone’s favourite Stick player momentarily veers off the highway of a song that doesn’t ever want to hang about. Clams Crimsonique with that Riviera touch anyone? 

Notes

This is Crimson in support-slot mode, wowing the crowds primarily there to see stable-mates, Roxy Music. And a heroic job they make of it.As Bill goes walkabout on a mesmerising rendition of The Sheltering Sky, the sultry Mediterranean weather has to cope with Bobby and Belew raising the temperature with their own brand of sweat-inducing storm-clouds of sonic shock and awe.
