Description
You are bidding on a rare King Crimson (Editions EG: #EGKC1) vinyl collectible. This is a 1983 release of King Crimson's debut album ("In The Court Of The Crimson King" (1969)) issued by the “Editions E.G. Label. This vinyl was made using the "Half Speed Mastering Process" and the sound is spectacular. I have never heard the title song, “21st Century Schizoid Man,” and “I Talk To The Wind,” like this before
This edition is long out of print, and is very difficult to find in new, sealed condition. This item is brand new, sealed, and in perfect condition, and includes the “Half Speed Mastering” hype sticker. The only thing to point out is there is a small piece of shrink missing where a sticker has been removed. Please see the last photo included in this listing to see this.
The CD’s have been stored at room temperature in a smoke free home.
Please see photos of actual item being sold.
Some Reviews below:
“The group's definitive album, and one of the most daring debut albums ever recorded by anybody. At the time, it blew all of the progressive/psychedelic competition (the Moody Blues, the Nice, etc.) out of the running…”
“An absolutely magnificent album that only seems to grow in stature with each listen. Robert Fripp & gang unwittingly created what is now a masterpiece for Prog Rock fans. The title track is both haunting and beautiful in its dynamics - moving from fragile acoustic ballad to almost orchestral grandeur. Fripp couldn't have picked a better vocalist than Greg Lake to sell these lyrics so passionately and with such wonderful tone. The more experimental moments during "Moonchild" are not meandering, but full of inspired spontaneity….”Track Listing:
