Исполнитель: King Crimson

альбом: The Construkction of Light (KC50, Vol. 37)


The complete Construkction of Light

I've explained elsewhere about the process involved in the recreation
Of The Construkction of Light album with the new drumming by Pat Mastelotto
And mixing by Bill Rieflin's production partner, Don Gunn
The original version of the album is only new King Crimson recording
On which I've not worked since I first met Robert Fripp in 1989
When it was released in early 2000
I was in Seattle trying to bring our own version of sanity
To the wild west of music downloads
In the early days of Napster and MP3.com
Which led in part to the DGM Live website
This meant that I was unfamiliar with much of the original source material for the album
Including the studio version of the title track, The Construkction of Light
The instrumental part of which remains a regular feature of setlists to this day
With Tony Levin now playing what he's described
As one of the best touch guitar bass parts ever written
When I first listened to the proposed new studio mixes
Near the end, I heard the lyric, "That a man might improvise the construction of light"
It sounded unfamiliar, so I checked the original album
And it's not there
Robert Fripp and Alex Mundy who did the editing in 2000
Had evidently removed the last two vocal lines
We honoured that decision and did exactly the same edit
For the current re-issue and for the Heaven & Earth boxset
But the version including those lines, offers another interesting outtake for this series
So here it is, the complete studio recording of The Construkction of Light
