Title: The KC Holy Grail
Review: Yes I am biased... I prefer the 73-74 incarnation of KC to all the others. This boxed set is for people like me. There is so much wonderful music on these CDs you cannot begin to assimilate it in less than a few weeks of steady listening. All of your favorites are here, performed with intensity and passion.The recording quality is variable, but generally of a very standard for the era. If you can, listen on a very "high-end" system at the stupendous volume level that KC always deserves. Extremely lifelike presentations.Giving credit to Belew's inventiveness and craftsmanship, Wetton is hands down the better vocalist.I honestly think that almost any music or band considered by the public at large as "heavy metal" or its adjuncts sounds limp and ineffectual in comparison to King Crimson at its best.These wonderful recordings support my position.
