King Crimson
Live in Orlando, FL
February 27, 1972
What you hear when you put on Live in Orlando, Florida is a band of four
musicians who didn't think about the arrangements or how difficult these
songs are to play, we just played them! We had no fear! No "Oh-crikey! We
are here, how do we get back again?" Somehow it worked and I don't ever
remember having to count the bars. Of course all of this is helped by
gigging a lot and knowing each other inside out.

Earthshake
From Mark van Kempen of Amsterdam, Netherlands on .
Not as hot as the concert from the previous night (in Jacksonville), but better played in terms of accuracy and refinement. Basically the same set as the night before, but longer, due to the inclusion of Groon and a well known improv, surprisingly morphing into Cadence and Cascade. I'm glad that I do not have to choose between the Jacksonville concert and this one - both have their particular merits.
Great Band
From Bill Eckert of Phila., Pennsylvania on .
Krimsos should get this one.It is the band that gave us Islands. A lot of people didn't like Islands. I've always thought it was a terrific album.This band really cooks live. I think it was a great band.If you want to hear a great live performance, buy it.
One of the best from the Earthbound tour
From Jerry Smith of Tacoma, Washington on .
This is one of my all time favorites in the Collector's Club Series. The performances are top notch and the sound quality isn't as bad as some. If you're starting out with the Collector's Club and are looking for a place to begin or if you just don't have it, GET IT NOW!!!
