乐队介绍:
有乐评说过:If there's one group that embodies progressive rock, it is King Crimson. 六十年代末、七十年代初当"前卫""概念""实验"等口号被喊地震天价响时,King Crimson(KC)是当中最优秀的理论与实践者之一;八十年代九十年代当此类经典乐团解体(ELP)或被主流收编(Yes)时,King Crimson仍路遥知马力般的摇滚著。无论现今摇滚的潮流为何,吾人仍不能否认当年KC所创造或遗留下的概念、技巧、精神正影响著现在想要突破的乐团,而他们的成就也成为后世前卫团体所无法突破的"梦靨"。
King Crimson所创造出的一片崭新世界是值得我们现在重新思考。组团到现在的三十多年间,从万眾瞩目到只有少数死忠乐迷的捧场,他们仍然想秉持当年改革创造的前进精神持续为市场或少数人提供精炼简约的诗句、结构巨大的乐曲、令人省思的主题。而当六十年代反战风潮的盛行,他们所推出前三张令人惊奇地结合当时的和平意识、人性探讨、而超越彼时一般摇滚音乐深度的专辑,是我们在回头探讨老摇滚时不能不提的。
跨入七十年代的KC则是均衡与创意皆达高峰。虽然内部的意见与纷争不断仍无法打击Robert Fripp创作野心。他们自由且灵活地运用各种音乐元素激盪属於自己的实验音乐,而都能有令人激赏的表现。在乐评与销售状况都达到顶尖的情况下,Larks's tongues in aspic、Starless and bible black、Red等专辑是Art/Progressive rock迷不能不备的。
八十年代的KC则是另一新开始。以录音室剪接混音与乐器配置、巧妙编曲取胜的新KC仍在奔驰著。九十年代则进入休养生息期,仅发行数张单曲EP及一张录音室专辑。这时的创作重心亦在吉它手Andrian Belew身上,某些层面上或许更接近早期KC的progressive+jazz fusion。在即将结束千禧年的当口KC又丢给我们一张难以消化的鉅作,看来他们在下个世纪是不打算缺席的了。(转)
In King Crimson's extensive catalog of archival recordings and box sets, The Great Deceiver (Live 1973-1974) is the undisputed winner, the item truly worth acquiring. The four-CD set Frame by Frame, released 18 months earlier, was light on material previously unavailable and included a few edits and overdubs on classic King Crimson tracks that shocked the fans. Epitaph, another four-CD collection culled from the group's first live shows in 1969, boasted understandably flawed sound and more repetitive content. But The Great Deceiver has it all. Over four discs, the set chronicles the on-stage activity between October 1973 and June 1974 of the most powerful King Crimson lineup. Robert Fripp, John Wetton, David Cross, and Bill Bruford were mostly performing material from their previous two LPs (Larks Tongues in Aspic and Starless and Bible Black). Yes, the track list remains pretty much the same from one show to another, but the group approaches each night from a different angle, changing the arrangements on the fly to suit the prevailing mood — check out the chameleon-esque "Easy Money," presented in four guises, for tangible proof. Most importantly, the group performed unpredictable improvisations that embodied the struggle between order and chaos that Fripp thrived to express in penned songs like "Starless" and "Fracture." The live tapes have been beautifully mastered so that the music hits hard without losing the subtle nuances of Cross' violin. At the time of its release, The Great Deceiver filled a gap in the group's discography (the live album USA had not been officially reissued yet), but even after tons of additional concerts from that period were released by Fripp's label, Discipline, this box set still stands as the definitive argument to consecrate the 1973-1974 Crimson as its most exciting incarnation.
