cd/dvd pacakage with album in 5.1 sound and alt mixes, demos etc. when robert fripp and jakko jakszyk got together in february 2009 neither expected that their initial sessions of guitar-only improvisations would result in a full-blown album, or that it would ultimately be deemed to be a king crimson projekct. as the material from those first sessions developed it was obviously becoming much wider in scope and scale. the arrival of sax player and former king crimson member, mel collins, added further colour and texture to the emerging songs. the line-up was completed with the addition of bassist tony levin and porcupine tree's drummer, gavin harrison (both members of the 2008 incarnation of king crimson) adding their parts to the material in their respective studios. what had begun as an exchange of ideas had now grown into an album of heartfelt songs, an album that is immediately accessible on first hearing but reveals fresh detail and depth with each subsequent play, as one might expect from musicians of this calibre. with the critical acclaim lavished on the king crimson 40th anniversary cd / dvd-a releases over the past two years, a sample of '21st century schizoid man' forming the central part of kanye west's 'power' single and robert fripp's guest appearance on nick cave's grinderman's 'super heathen child' in 2010, cover versions of king crimson songs featuring on recent recordings by artists as diverse as jazz singer kurt elling and folk music stars the unthanks, it's fair to say that interest in all things crimson has probably not been at such a high point for many years.
