King Crimson Collectors' Club (1969-1974) King Crimson Collectors' Club (1969-1974) Scritto da Gianluca Livi Mercoledì 30 Marzo 2016 19:23 King Crimson 1 / 10 King Crimson Collectors' Club (1969-1974) Scritto da Gianluca Livi Mercoledì 30 Marzo 2016 19:23 Collectors' Club (1969-1974) di Gianluca Livi Articolo originariamente apparso in due puntate sui nn. 35 e 37 (rispettivamente Marzo/Aprile e Luglio/Agosto del 2008) di "Musikbox. Rivista di cultura musicale e guida ragionata al collezionismo", qui pubblicato, con alcune varianti, per gentile concessione dell'autore. Premessa (2008) Alla fine degli anni '90, stanco dei bootleg, Robert Fripp decise di commercializzare ufficialmente alcuni live dei King Crimson su cd, muovendo dal presupposto che, se fino a quel momento i fan avevano acquistato materiale del gruppo dal vivo di scarsa qualità, facendo guadagnare esclusivamente biechi 2 / 10 King Crimson Collectors' Club (1969-1974) Scritto da Gianluca Livi Mercoledì 30 Marzo 2016 19:23 imprenditori pirata, poteva egli stesso vendere le medesime esibizioni, ufficializzandone l'uscita sul mercato discografico e, congiuntamente, perseguendo anche un (legittimo) fine di lucro. Poiché anche parte delle registrazioni in suo possesso erano qualitativamente scadenti, conscio dell'impossibilità di immetterle nel mercato senza suscitare polemiche, decise di distribuirle solo agli iscritti di un club, il cosiddetto “Collector's Club”. Coloro che vi avessero aderito, previo versamento di una cifra iniziale abbastanza consistente, avrebbero ricevuto i titoli pubblicati di volta in volta, vedendosi scalato il valore di ogni singolo disco dalla quota d'iscrizione. L'iniziativa andò avanti con ottimi risultati fino al 2002, quando - abbandonato definitivamente il metodo dell'iscrizione al Club - i cd furono inseriti nel catalogo della DGM, unitamente ad album ufficiali dei Crimson e di altri artisti della scuderia. La denominazione “Collector's Club” non sarà tuttavia abbandonata, risultando impressa anche nei titoli successivi. In questa sede analizzeremo le uscite afferenti ai soli anni '60 e ’70, riportate in ordine rigorosamente cronologico, non certo di uscita discografca, ma di data dell'esibizione. Live In Hyde Park 5 Luglio 1969 (Club #12) Stampato con notevole ritardo, a causa del mancato placet di Greg Lake, il vol. 12 della serie, non soltanto è caratterizzato da un'ottima qualità sonora ma documenta la prima performance dal vivo dei Crimson. Più della metà dei brani sono lunghe e inedite improvvisazioni. “Get Thy Beanngs” è una cover di Donovan ricca di assoli ai fiati e alla chitarra. “Mantra”, “Travel Weary Capricorn” e “Mars” si sviluppano a cascata senza alcuna soluzione di continuità. La prima è una ballata in cui emerge il flauto sognante di McDonald, la seconda sembra una session jazzistica che progredisce in rapido crescendo e si chiude con sperimentazioni sonore di stampo minimale. “Mars” non è un inedito (si tratta di “Devils Triangle”, accreditata oggi all’originario compositore Holst, dopo una lunga querelle legale persa dai Crimson), ma viene suonata dalla formazione precedente a quella che la proporrà nella definitiva versione in studio. La scaletta è completata da “Band Reunion Meeting” (registrazione della conferenza tenuta a Londra dai componenti originari della band in occasione dell'uscita del cofanetto “Epitaph” il 15/3/1997) e una (superflua) versione strumentale di 21st Century Schizoid Man registrata ai Morgan Studios il 12/6/1969. 3 / 10 King Crimson Collectors' Club (1969-1974) Scritto da Gianluca Livi Mercoledì 30 Marzo 2016 19:23 Track listing "21st Century Schizoid Man" (6:35) (Robert Fripp, Greg Lake, Ian McDonald, Michael Giles, Peter Sinfield) "The Court of the Crimson King" (6:31) (McDonald, Sinfield) "Get Thy Bearings" (9:41) (Donovan Leitch, arr. Fripp, Lake, McDonald, Giles) "Epitaph" (4:28) (Fripp, Lake, McDonald, Giles, Sinfield) "Mantra" (3:04) (Fripp, Lake, McDonald, Giles, Sinfield) "Travel Weary Capricorn" (5:37) (Fripp, Lake, McDonald, Giles, Sinfield) "Mars: The Bringer of War" (3:59) (Gustav Holst, arr. Fripp, Lake, McDonald, Giles, Sinfield) Band reunion meeting (15:19) "21st Century Schizoid Man" (6:48) (Fripp, Giles, Lake, McDonald, Sinfield) Personnel Robert Fripp - guitar Greg Lake - bass guitar, vocals Ian McDonald - saxophone, flute, Mellotron, vocals Michael Giles - drums, percussion, vocals Peter Sinfield - lyrics and illumination Live At The Marquee 1969 6 Luglio 1969 (Club #25) “Live At The Marquee” documenta le esibizioni del 6/7/1969 al Marquee di Londra (Fripp non è 4 / 10 King Crimson Collectors' Club (1969-1974) Scritto da Gianluca Livi Mercoledì 30 Marzo 2016 19:23 sicuro che la data sia giusta, motivo per cui la stessa non compare nel titolo) e del 17/10/1969 alla Fairfield Hall di Croydon (limitatamente al brano “Trees”). La resa sonora della prima data è pessima, mentre per la seconda non è neanche il caso di fornire un parametro valutativo, trattandosi di un'incisione catturata a notevole distanza dalla fonte. Le versioni di “21st Century Schizoid Man” ed “Epitaph” estrapolate al “Marque2” sono prive in apertura di una manciata di secondi, mentre “Trees” presenta due brevi tagli all’inizio e si interrompe bruscamente in chiusura. Eppure le performances sono da brivido, splendidamente caratterizzate dallo spirito free di quegli anni. “Drop In” è un'improvvisazione che funzionerà da canovaccio per “The Letters” (traccia apparsa successivamente nell'album “Islands”), come lo è il quinto brano non titolato, che include estratti da “Nola” e “Etude n. 7” attribuite rispettivamente ad Arndt e Matteo Carcassi. “Mars” è presente in una versione addirittura raddoppiata rispetto a quella suonata il giorno precedente (inserita nel Club #12). “Trees” – oltre diciotto minuti di libero suonare - presenta una stralunata armonia vocale a tre voci (Giles, McDonald e Lake), e contiene spunti melodici che poi confluiranno in “Peace – A Beginning” e “Picture Of A City” (presenti entrambe nell'lp “In The Wake Of Poseidon”). Track listing "21st Century Schizoid Man" (Robert Fripp, Michael Giles, Greg Lake, Ian McDonald, Peter Sinfield) 6:21 (contiene "Mirrors") "Drop In" (Fripp, Giles, Lake, McDonald) 5:42 "I Talk to the Wind" (McDonald, Sinfield) 5:17 "Epitaph" (Fripp, Giles, Lake, McDonald, Sinfield) 3:20 (contiene: "March for No Reason" e "Tomorrow and Tomorrow") "Mantra" [not listed] (Fripp, Giles, Lake, McDonald) 7:33 "Travel Weary Capricorn" (Fripp, Giles, Lake, McDonald, Sinfield) 3:34 "Improv" (Fripp, Giles, Lake, McDonald, Sinfield) 12:28 (contiene: "Nola" di Felix Arndt; "Étude No 7" di Matteo Carcassi) "Mars: The Bringer of War" (Gustav Holst) 8:29 "Trees" (Fripp, Giles, Lake, McDonald, Sinfield) 18:41 Personnel Robert Fripp - chitarra Greg Lake - basso, voce Ian McDonald - tastiera, mellotron, voce Michael Giles - batteria, percussioni, voce Peter Sinfield - illuminazione (ispirazione artistica) Live At Fillmore East 5 / 10 King Crimson Collectors' Club (1969-1974) Scritto da Gianluca Livi Mercoledì 30 Marzo 2016 19:23 LiveRobertPersonnel"21st"Mirrors")"Tomorrow"TheTrackLamicrofono.Isono“Liveprima“Thecontengononote21-22 PeterMichaelIanGreg"Epitaph""A"21sttre qualitàMan, McDonald brani dei AtCourtAtdavvero Century listingdataLakeCenturynovembreSinfield Fripp PlymouthFillmore libretto).Gilesa finalisonora (Fripp, City" eranoOfofand- i -bass primi the impeccabili.Schizoid Theguitar - Schizoid- della Tomorrow")wordsdrums, (Fripp,(Robertsaxophone, East” 1969 Giles,giàCrimson è guitar,CrimsonGuildhallquattro più secondaapparsi and(Club riporta Man" cheGiles,percussion, Man"Lake,Fripp, vocals minutiKing"illumination discretaKing” #1)flute,(Fripp, nel (Fripp,dueLake,data,McDonald, Michael (McDonald,(Ian cofanetto (un (curiosamente,concertimellotron, sono vocalsMcDonald,ancheGiles, Giles,McDonald,fatto Giles, priviSinfield) che Lake, conEpitaphseLake, Petervocals Gregdi un viene laSinfield) improvvisazione Peter McDonald,fastidiosoilmedesimaMcDonald, - Sinfield)titolo (discLake,8:318:03 stigmatizzato Sinfield) -è1,(Including: McDonald,12:19 privo tracksvento- Sinfield) scalettaSinfield)2:16 -dell'iniziale 2:36 inesistente tamburella 5-7)anche "March sebbeneSinfield)- - mentre7:56 8:05 da “In”),(Including: for (Including:Michaelmatalvolta -letre No12:21 leduenon pezzi Reason"esecuzioni sulGiles,versioni della nellee di Labranounfonti.SIcompetenteesecuzionesuperioreunainterpretazionitalmenteportentososugliimpreziosiscono11 trattaqualitàbootlegMaggio ritmica altri e l'altro,del adeguata per asonora 1971di e che quellediconcertoche dinamicocompetenza,pessima “Getdainsieme non sii(Club brani) segnalareè del sia daThy fantasticaconserva integrale '69) mainonfattura, intro#14) ai Bearings”e primi capacità chemossanecessitarespirito allasono assolutamente (ècon tenutovededue batteria. una innovativo neiquelledil'aggravante tecniche.minuti CollinsDonovan, registrazioneterritoridalla del diTutti e distorsore,“21stformazione cimentarsi mezzo(sue, proprinullai quimusicistiche Century molte propostasoundboard), del dinondel “Get e suoin dei Jazz. dièsonodelle vorticosiSchizoid stato “SailorsCrimsonbackgroundThy in Neimprovvisazioni osmotici,una Bearings”,attuato sebbeneè soli Man”,Tale”,esempioversione forse al alcunrock.sebbene sax conarricchitapiù glisiano la(certamente eAltreattendibileapplausimix la chemagistraleWallace voce stati Collinstra di lediestrattiun tra duefornire Burrell espicchi un da LiveRobertPersonnel"Get"Cirkus"TrackNonostantebassa PeterIanMelBoz"Mars:"21st"Ladies"The"Cadence"Lady"Sailor's"Pictures Wallace CollinsThyBurrellIn

  • THE SHARED INFLUENCES and CHARACTERISTICS of JAZZ FUSION and PROGRESSIVE ROCK by JOSEPH BLUNK B.M.E., Illinois State University, 2014
    COMMON GROUND: THE SHARED INFLUENCES AND CHARACTERISTICS OF JAZZ FUSION AND PROGRESSIVE ROCK by JOSEPH BLUNK B.M.E., Illinois State University, 2014 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master in Jazz Performance and Pedagogy Department of Music 2020 Abstract Blunk, Joseph Michael (M.M., Jazz Performance and Pedagogy) Common Ground: The Shared Influences and Characteristics of Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock Thesis directed by Dr. John Gunther In the late 1960s through the 1970s, two new genres of music emerged: jazz fusion and progressive rock. Though typically thought of as two distinct styles, both share common influences and stylistic characteristics. This thesis examines the emergence of both genres, identifies stylistic traits and influences, and analyzes the artistic output of eight different groups: Return to Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Miles Davis’s electric ensembles, Tony Williams Lifetime, Yes, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, and Soft Machine. Through qualitative listenings of each group’s musical output, comparisons between genres or groups focus on instances of one genre crossing over into the other. Though many examples of crossing over are identified, the examples used do not necessitate the creation of a new genre label, nor do they demonstrate the need for both genres to be combined into one. iii Contents Introduction………………………………………………………………………………… 1 Part One: The Emergence of Jazz………………………………………………………….. 3 Part Two: The Emergence of Progressive………………………………………………….. 10 Part Three: Musical Crossings Between Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock…………….... 16 Part Four: Conclusion, Genre Boundaries and Commonalities……………………………. 40 Bibliography……………………………………………………………………………….

Kilbourn Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53203 414.908.6000 MillerHighLifeTheatre.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Sarah Maio [email protected] 414-908-6056 King Crimson Announce “Music Is Our Friend” North American Tour Dates 2021 King Crimson comes to the Miller High Life Theatre on August 31, 2021 MILWAUKEE – (June 7, 2021) – The Miller High Life Theatre and Alternative Concert Group are proud to welcome King Crimson with special guest The Zappa Band to the Miller High Life Theatre, August 31, 2021. Artist VIP presale is June 9 at 11 a.m., and venue presale is June 10th at 10 a.m. Tickets go on sale to the public Friday, June 11 at noon at the Miller High Life Theatre box office or Ticketmaster. When King Crimson returns to action this July, it will be the seventh year that the band has toured since returning to performing live in 2014, a run only interrupted by the lockdown in 2020. In that time, the audience has been reinvented, as much as the band itself, something Robert Fripp noted after the band’s performance in Pompeii, Italy’s famous amphitheater: “In Pompeii, a large percentage of the audience was young couples; KC moved into the mainstream in Italy. I walked onstage knowing that this band's position in the world has changed level.” - Robert Fripp The band’s shows regularly include material from twelve of their thirteen studio albums, including many songs from their seminal 1969 album In the Court of the Crimson King, described by Pete Townshend as an “uncanny masterpiece.” The 7-piece line-up play many historic pieces, which Crimson has never previously played live, as well as new arrangements of Crimson classics – “the music is new whenever it was written.” There are also new instrumentals and songs, as well as compositions by the three drummers, Pat Mastelotto, Gavin Harrison and Jeremy Stacey, which are a regular highlight.

  • Schule Am Stadtrand
    KING CRIMSON – 01. July 2018 – Berlin, Admiralspalast – Uncertain Times Tour - Text: Holger Ott Schwere Kost und ein anstrengender, langer Abend stehen heute auf meinem Plan. KING CRIMSON mit ihrem, als etwas exzentrisch geltenden Bandleader ROBERT FRIPP, sind in der Stadt und geben im ehrwürdigen Admiralspalast gleich drei Konzerte an drei Abenden. Betrachtet man den Tourplan, scheint das wohl bei ihnen so üblich zu sein. Anderenorts gibt es auch Zusatzkonzerte wegen der enormen Nachfrage. Ein kluger Rechner würde überlegen, weshalb die Band nicht in größere Säle gewechselt hat, um alles mit einem Rutsch abzuarbeiten, aber der Rechner hat dabei ROBERT FRIPP vergessen. Für ihn ist es wichtiger Qualität abzuliefern, als die Massen zu bespaßen. Somit bildet der Admiralspalast das perfekte Ambiente, um das 'Klanggewitter' auf die Bühne zu bringen. Zudem können sich die Band, die Techniker und Roadies ein paar Tage Berlin gönnen. Da Foto- und Videoaufnahmen streng verboten sind, kann ich mich entspannt in meinem Sitz zurücklehnen und das Ereignis über mich ergehen lassen. Ja, die Fotoregelung ist schon etwas Besonderes, das doch mal Erwähnung verdient hat. Bei der Einlasskontrolle wird jedem Besucher alles technische Gerät abgenommen. Zwei riesige Schilder auf der Bühne weisen darauf hin, dass bei einem Verstoß, der 'Täter' sofort aus dem Saal komplimentiert wird. Ein Ansager erklärt, dass erst nach Ende des Konzertes fotografiert werden darf, und zwar ab dem Moment, an dem Bassist TONY LEVIN seine eigene Kamera zur Hand nimmt, um Bilder vom Publikum zu machen. Und womit soll das Publikum fotografieren? Ich habe meine Kamera und mein Mobiltelefon zum Auto zurückgeschleppt. Einige haben es dennoch geschafft ihr Telefon hinein zu schmuggeln und wer schon im Dunkeln das Gerät einschaltet und somit eine Lichtquelle erzeugt, wird von den Ordnern aufs Korn genommen.

  • LIRICHE DI PETER SINFIELD FORMENTERA LADY Houses Iced
    LIRICHE DI PETER SINFIELD FORMENTERA LADY Houses iced in whitewash guard a pale shore-line Cornered by the cactus and the pine. Here I wander where sweet sage and strange herbs grow Down a sun-baked crumpled stony road. Dusty wheels leaning rusting in the sun; Snuff brown walls where spanish lizards run (1). Here I'm shadowed by a dragon fig tree's fan (2) Ringed by ants and musing over man. I'll unwind my old strings while the sun shine down Won't climb any high thing while the sun shine. Formentera lady sing your song for me Formentera lady sweet lover. Lamplights glows on old guitars the travellers strum; Insence children dance to an indian drum. Here odysseus charmed for dark circe fell, Still her perfume lingers still her spell. Time's grey hand won't catch me while the sun shine down Untie and unlatch me while the stars shine. Formentera lady dance your dance for me Formentera lady dark lover. (1) Gli antichi greci chiamarono Formentera Ophiussa, ovvero “piena di serpenti”,proprio per la presenza di numerosi serpenti e lucertole. (2) Il “dragon fig tree” non esiste essendo l’unione di due diversi alberi: l’albero di fico e l’albero del drago (Dracaena draco). Quest’ultima è una pianta subtropicale diffusa oltre che nelle baleari, nelle canarie e in Marocco. Entrambe, comunque, sono ritenute avere poteri magici. Per le popolazioni indigene delle Isole Canarie, l’albero del drago possiede proprietà magiche. Tale credenza è in parte dovuta al fatto che quando la corteccia o le foglie vengono recise, secernono una resina che ossidandosi assume una colorazione rossastra, conosciuta come sangue di drago.
