The final studio album by the 70s Crimson!
“Deluxe two CD + two Blu-Ray edition. Panegyric proudly present the 50th anniversary edition of the King Crimson classic album Red.
Features completely new Dolby Atmos, 5. 1 DTS-HD Master Audio Surround & Stereo mixes by Steven Wilson taking the music to new levels of clarity & power.
'Red' was one of the earliest mixes undertaken by Steven Wilson in 2009 & King Crimson was the first of a number of classic band's & artists to be mixed by Steven so it's entirely appropriate that he return, some 15 years later, to take the album into the Dolby Atmos era. Also, featured are a complete album's worth of Elemental Mixes by long-time King Crimson producer (& band manager) David Singleton - using the original multi-track recordings to present a very different audio picture of the album, with greater separation of instruments & utilizing many recorded elements recorded for, but not included in, the original mixes.
Multiple new to disc tracks & studio takes - representing all material to survive from the recording sessions have also been mixed &/or mastered for inclusion, making this the most comprehensive overview of the album to be released.
Red was recorded immediately after King Crimson's final US tour of 1974 & the anniversary edition reflects that by including all three Hi-Res Stereo mixes of the live album USA in it's full concert versions. Also included are a quintet of audio restored bootlegs being issued on disc for the first time, alongside a bootleg of the band's final US concert in New York in 1974 which Robert Fripp claimed was: "the first gig since the 1969 Crimson where the bottom of my spine registered 'out of this world' to the same degree".
