I am extremely unhappy with the next King Crimson release in the 40th anniversary series. After doing fantastic work on the first 5 records, where they have a DVD with a host of bonus material and hi-def and surround mixes, at a very reasonable price around the £12 mark, Larks Tongues in Aspic now delivers 12 CDs of extra (who really needs this?) and comes in at a whopping £90! As much as I would like the hi-def record and the Steven Wilson mixes, I am not prepared to pay that kind of money.
I don’t know why they decided to follow the Pink Floyd/Jethro Tull model rather than carrying on like before, but I for one will not be caught. Maybe someone on eBay will buy the complete set and sell it seperately, which is how I got Wish you were here on Blu-Ray.
