Mundy on behalf of King Crimson & the King Crimson Collectors' Club Recorded November 21 [tracks 1-4] & 22 [5-8], 1969 at The Fillmore East, New York City Original Front Of House Mix: Peter Sinfield Digital editing: Alex R Mundy Design: Hugh O'Donnell 'The Fillmore East concerts in New York 1969 were an important landmark for King Crimson. The band had, in the space of only nine months, risen from obscurity to international recognition, and the American tour was a crucial part of this process. The two nights are enjoyably different, including the recovery from "dropped stitches". The band is in consistently good form, especially on A Man A City and Schizoid Man, which are taken at blistering speed, and in my opinion, the best way, because if the fast sections are too comfortable the half speed sections become relatively ponderous. So I'm pleased to have found this Fillmore East tape, and hope that it is as valuable to the collector as it is to me' (Michael Giles) (P) © 2004 King Crimson/Discipline Global Mobile
