King Crimson - Red: 40th Anniversary CD + 5.1 / hi-res DVD-A (expanded / remixed / remastered)
SKU
23-KCSP 7
This is the new-new version of Red, newly remixed by Steven Wilson with lots and lots of new things. The CD has the original album as you remember it (although newly remastered) with three extra tracks: pre-overdub versions of Red and Fallen Angel + the entire version of Providence. The DVD has a lot of material, but I think the most important thing is the previously unreleased and great French TV performance of four tracks from 1974, which look fantastic given the age of the video. There is very little footage of the pre-80s band; this 25' chunk is the largest amount known to exist! If you weren't sure whether or not to buy this, imo, the live footage alone makes it a worthwhile purchase. The album is mixed onto 5.1 and there are lots of options for the audio playback in terms of sampling rates, etc. This has new notes by Robert Fripp and King Crimson expert Sid Smith.
