KING CRIMSON The Great Deceiver [Vol. 2]
(2007 25-track 2-CD album set; few bands rocked as hard as Crimson. Fewer still had the ability to improvise with such skill. Almost none could combine the two elements so successfully. 'The Great Deceiver' helped define that approach afresh when originally issued in 1992, delighting some of their original audience along with an audience new to the material - assembled & mixed with great care by David Singleton & Robert Fripp from the original live multi track tapes, this is a musical feast!).
