To celebrate their 50th anniversary, King Crimson are releasing 50 rare or unusual tracks from the archives. Starting on 13th January, the date the band was formed in the Fulham Palace Café in 1969, these tracks will be released one a week for the remaining 50 weeks of 2019. Each track will be introduced by a commentary from David Singleton, King Crimson manager and producer.

And that also means for all intents and porpoises that this is the 50th anniversary of prog rock's debut as a major art form. A half century of nerd music has been quite the satisfying collection!

There are also a host of planned releases according to dgm.
Glad they are still around 50 years later.

Well THEY is really just Fripp so as long as he's alive, KC is still around!

I'm hoping that this 50th anniversary will find as member past members as possible collaborating for a super duper reunion album that takes all the different styles of the KC canon and creates a monster new album!

Truth. If anyone can flip off the reaper successfully it would be fripp. 

And a new album would be great. I can only wonder what they're concocting behind the scenes. I would have a hard time believing they would only come up with a half a dozen new pieces with 8 members in the band.

I have not heard of any new music, other than the normal grab bag type reissue like another multi-disc uber box set of In the Court......

If they come around to Seattle again, for sure we will be there. Hopefully with the 3-headed monster in front.
