Description
King Crimson 1st Press OZ LP USA EX ’75 Pink Rim Island L35520 Prog Rock Fripp
Original 1st Press OZ LP released in 1975 on the Pink Rim Island Label. Cat: L-35520. Comes in gloss sleeve.
As Robert Fripp had done with King Crimson's first live LP, Earthbound (1972), USA is a single-disc concert package documenting the quartet during its 1974 swing through North America. As with its predecessor, USA was also issued as a sonic cenotaph of the concurrently defunct Krim. So insistent that the band would not be resurrected, Fripp concluded the LP's liner notes at the time with another three-letter epitaph: "R.I.P." The 1973/1974 King Crimson included the collective efforts of Fripp (guitar/Mellotron), David Cross (violin), John Wetton (bass/vocals), and Bill Bruford (drums/percussion). USA also includes notable violin overdubs by Eddie Jobson on the tracks "Larks' Tongues in Aspic, Pt. 2" and "21st Century Schizoid Man," as well as electric piano addendums to "Lament."
Tracks : Larks’ tongue in aspic Part II/ Lament/ Exiles/ Asbury Park/ Easy money/ 21st century schizoid man.
