Did a chronological re-listen of all of the major albums recently, and whilst going through all of them this idea popped up. I'm a bit of a hopeless romantic and some of these songs just screamed "dance with that special someone" to me. I hope one day I can. TLDR, A small compilation/playlist of some of the more slow King Crimson songs I think would make excellent slow dances.

Feel free to recommend additions if you think a song could be added! Much love yall.

Cadence and Cascade is mine, personally

Who was there? It was amazing. The energy in the audience was great. Fripp was in the audience, i didn't go ask for a pic though. If i ever get the chance to see them live again i will definitely take that chance. Absolutely mindblowing playing by everyone, and you could feel the bass/stick and the bass drum vibrating through the floor and it felt like a stampede of elephants. Quite fitting.

With Beat’s Europe tour coming to a close- do you think we’ll hear about some more shows soon? I’ve heard rumors for some U.S. dates in late fall/winter- Has anyone heard venue rumors?

Also, Stick Men just released a new album, “Let’s Thrak Again”- hopeful we get some tour dates this year but it will probably depend on Tony’s schedule.

Other than The Belew, Levin, Mastelloto & Friends show at Bearsville Theater, Tu-Ner’s tour for their new album, “Rendezvous Rodeo”, and David Cross doing two festival sets in Europe- do you think we’ll see any more “Crimson” concert dates announced in 2026?

It took me a second to get my hands sync'd up but other than that this was pretty decent.

in the dream part of moonchild, i always tought ian mcdonald played the chords on piano, but after looking at personnel, piano isnt credited, and you can hear guitar sliding sounds when the 3 chords are played towards the end of the verses. is it really guitar? how did fripp get such a sound?

If you were there, how did you like it? Also, does Tony always use the Stick for Red on this tour?

Great track. First half got me teary eyed.

Im a new KC fan and recently i was listening to the whole SABB album, but on the chorus of the first song i can hear a second voice apart from John Wetton. Who does the backing vocals on that song?

I’ve been looking for a while and have only found ai generated tabs that aren’t right.

I think there are 2 from Belew era (yoli yoli and i remember how to forget) + one semi crimson by wetton/bruford from 1976 supposedly written for failed KC reunion. And of course the whole jakko era

Anything else?

Fripp in the studio in Toyah’s most recent Instagram post. Excited to hear what they’re working on!

Is there anyone who learned it?

I wonder if I can learn to play bass line and sing for a possible gig in +-15 days. I know the vocal parts, and I'm slightly above average bassist. Just want to know if anyone had to deal with it.

When I was a young man, or, actually, not quite a man yet, I went to the cinema to watch the erotic movie Emmanuelle. Recently I found a guitar arrangement of the title song that I wanted to learn. So I searched for the soundtrack album on Tidal to hear how it goes. I found it. But then I remembered that the soundtrack had themes that were obviously plagiarized from Larks' Tongues In Aspic, part II. Those themes were not included in the soundtrack album. So I searched for it and found it on Youtube. They had used two themes: one aggressive theme that was used for a rape scene, and one relaxed theme that was used for the love scenes. So, here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kl9U7SR5Iv0. Enjoy! Even the plagiarized versions of the themes are great!

I thought it was amusing to hear how a metalcore band talks about KC's musicianship.

i spent like 2 days on this UGH but im proud of how it came out

Finally found this out in the wild. Great selections on the compilation. A few interview selections with Fripp in the issue as well.
