DEJA VROOOM

I must have seen this show a dozen times. It was my first experience to the multiple-angle feature. Was i excited to have 7 angles shots on one song. The only problem was that the picture would stop each time i switched for one angle to the other. But i didn't have the same problem with some other songs, who we are limited to 2 or 3 angles without any freezing pictures. The DVD put the thing further by letting you choose a musician from all the King Crimson incarnations during the 70's throught 1996. You can create your own band with the song "21st Century Schizoid Man". So enough of the game aspect of the DVD. Let's talk about the main event.

It's a great performance in Japan in a dark lighting set up, that create a special atmosphere. Watching this talented musicians playing some of the most original progressive rock music is still a great experience. They played the old classics, like "Red" and "Larks Tongues in Aspc" along with many songs from my 2 favotites cd's of the band; "Thrak" and "Discipline". So i don't have a problem with some old songs not have been played on this DVD.

The picture quality is not the best from the standard of today, but we have a good DTS Surround sound. So this DVD is essential to King Crimson fans and those who wants to see one of the most innovative band that gives to progressive rock music is full meaning.
