Yes! Another Bucket fan! Still trying to figure out Bucky's tapping pattern... P.S. If you want to hear it the other way around watch this: ua-cam.com/video/1gjnV9zDrg4/v-deo.html Top tier Buckethead. Truly a side of him I've never seen before.

They are the Mozarts, the Bethovens of tomorrow. People will listen in future decades of even centuries and will still wonder what was that. I am glad they are still alive and playing. We should celebrate that fact and hope they will all have long and good life, as they made our lives happier for decades already. Thank you DGM and all viewers that support this extreme conception of music. I have the sense that even though everybody needs the money, these guys never really did it for the money as an end They did it simply because they are real artists and musicians. I read they only managed to make ends meet only after 20 years they had gotten started . Only around the 80s they managed to see some money. I salute Crimson.
Joseph Smith Yeah, that ain't casual. That's a combo of pure focus and in some cases, sheer terror. Take a look at his face during the Moto Perpetuo sections of FraKctured (the really fast-picked parts that never seem to let up).
He's such a machine. He's like some sort of advanced alien music-making technology sent back in time to school all the mere mortals trying to play guitar
When Fripp turns on the distortion and starts to burn on Frakctured it's some of the most exciting playing I've ever experienced. He is a master musician.
Tony Levin isn't in this lineup but he has been in a shitload of spectacular bands. I cracked up reading the credits to this Alice cooper song. ua-cam.com/video/6ZeaCohfWsY/v-deo.html
Fripp plays like he is possessed. It's like his hands are taken over by the guitar gods, and he just sits there, letting them play through his hands. He is remarkable.
Fripp and Belew had a musical bond like no other, truly knew how to play off eachother or even mirror eachother. The way they can lock into eachother whilst playing is astonishing. Foolish move to kick Belew
QuickShepard :My good man,U are absolutely correct. The synchronization and interplay between these 2 eclectic and idiosyncratic virtuosos is unparalleled in music history.Even if U wish 2 call forth the period known as Baroque;U had your singular virtuosos;J.S. Bach, A.Vivaldi,and to close out the period W.A.Mozart(with many other lesser known,but equally as resplendent composer/performers).Then we have the master A.Segovia,who legitimized the nylon string and ultimately,the guitar itself as an instrument to be taken as serious as any other symphonic instrument.Fast forward through 2 Les Paul,who without him,there would be no electric guitar and Multi track recording , and thus no DGM.But Belew and Fripp are ,hands down more psychically tuned 2 each other's cognitive process than ANY other 2 guitarists.They have always been the vanguards of sonic expression. Nary a twin guitar fusion has there ever been,and are light years ahead of the musical world!🎼🤓✨🙏🏼✨🇨🇦
@@ProgFanification As I understand it, "kicking Belew" is perhaps a bit too strong a wording. KC was reformed, but Fripp simply didn't invite Belew to be a part of the reformation, citing him as not being a good fit for the current iteration of the band. Given that there hasn't been a major release since then, this reasoning seems questionable, but it is what it is.
Initially, I was a real junkie of the 70's and 80's King Crimson, but I am digging 1994-2003 KC more and more. Projekct One is some of the nastiest music I ever heard. Some bass lines by levin could kill a T-Rex. Amazing period for KC!
Damn, around 11:00 -16:00 minute mark or so.. playing those complex melodic lines, completely in sync like that, f'king mesmerizing. Anyone who appreciates music can appreciate it, but especially being a player in a band with 2 guitarists, wow, to play at this level is pinnacle aspiration shit right here.
The Heavy ConstruKction release is probably my favorite KC to listen to. So many gems in there, absolute soniKcally stellar performances. I especially like the improvs, like the one here. So nice to see it performed live. The other improvs on the release are Munchen and Offenbach - mind-blowing! Thank you Robert, Adrian, Trey and Pat! If you can find this audio release, I highly recommend it.
мастера высшего класса нельзя отвести глаз просто электро-магнитизм магический завораживающий звук отличное качество мне очень понравилось спасибо большое боже храни king crimson
The Incarnation of King Crimson with the addition of ADRIAN BELEW is my favorite band and he seemed to be such a natural fit for this Great Prog Rock sound!
What a lovely surprise to start the day! I know everyone loves The Power to Believe, but I am of the unpopular opinion that this King Crimson hit its peak before the release of that album. The material in The ConstruKction of Light is far stronger (again, IMO), and coupled with the focus on improvisation and the realization that Belew could play a King Crimson show without playing Elephant Talk or Indiscipline for the umpteenth time, this made the 2000 tour a delight for me. Then again, I believe "A speck of lint on the penis of an alien" is a brilliant line, so maybe I'm just a weirdo.
You're not a weirdo. Ot maybe you are, what do I know? But thinking that line is brilliant does not make one a weirdo. It struck me, the first time I heard this song. Belew is not one for throwing in "shocking" words or sentiments gratuitously, which makes it all the more brilliant. Levels and levels. Hats off to AB & KC.
My favourite period in KC history. This music was ahead of its time in 2000 and it still is. I understand and support the new KC but the Double Duo was unbeatable. Fripp's fretboard gymnastics, Belew's charisma (and making absurd parts seem easy to play), Gunn's Warr wizardry, and Mastelotto's frakctured electronic/acoustic drumming made a band with all the parts in the right places. This might be the only case of extremely technical music that I find truly enjoyable even when I'm in the 'naive listener' mode (that is, when I just listen to the song, go with the flow, no analysis).
Late-90s-early-2000s Crimson was the peak of the band in my opinion, which is pretty mind blowing considering how long they've been around and over 30 years from their initial formation. Like, what if the Rolling Stones, after their popularity in the 60s and 70s, had their peak years as a band in 1999-2002??? The really crazy thing, is it is still possible that we haven't seen the peak of Crimson. . . although I suspect the latest incarnation is meant to come full circle and return to their roots as the band comes to a final retirement. I saw them around this time in Detroit. Three times actually. They were amazing.
It makes me feel smart and honestly, I just had a Allan Holdsworth phase and, while not actually practising along, I started playing more legato style. Not on purpose, it just happened. I got it recorded. Now I hope for the same with King Crimson lol
So FraKctured is not merely a nightmare I dreamed up. That's good to know. Though the terror in Robert's eyes is SO palpable. He knows he's playing on the edge of his abilities and is so close to disaster from note to note...
Cette musique est enthousiasmante.... Richesse du discours mélodique, harmonies à couper le souffle, orchestration sans cesse renouvelée dans l’utilisation des timbres des instruments. En onze mots comme en cent, une babylonienne architecture sonore érigée par d’humbles et impétueux compositeurs-interprètes 👏
This is incredible! I remember seeing them with this lineup in 2001 with John Paul Jones. One of the most enjoyable concerts I've ever been too. Fripp and Belew are the best guitar tandem in the world!
I totally forgot about John Paul Jones opening for them - I saw this iteration in NYC and Philly - probably the best live Lineup in the modern KC era IMO - sooo tight! I remember Fripp making them re-start a tune (Thela?) about a minute in, something was ever so slightly off to him, not that a normal human would have noticed
Marvelous. Thank you for making this available. Saw them in November of same year at the Supper Club NY standing about 10 feet from Robert and of course Frakctured was an absolute highlight. So was Pat - sorry to see he is mostly missing from this footage.
David Singleton said in his diary last Thursday that " [he] had a surprisingly clear vision of a possible path for the Construkction of Light re-issue, which will follow THRAK". Fripp said back in 2011 that "David Singleton and myself listened to the multi-tracks at DGM a little while ago, and came to the view that we could not significantly improve the album from the source recordings - ADATs. We have discussed re-assembling the album to include live recordings of the pieces. Something like, The reConstruKction of Light. This is one of our discussion plans for a possible future, if litigation and dissent leave our DGM lives." In the UA-cam description to this video they specifically state that Heavy ConstruKction is out of print. All the tracks included in the video appeared were taken from this show on Heavy ConstruKction. So... could this be a taster for a future audiovisual edition of Heavy ConstruKction? All the shows were shot by BootlegTV so it could be done. The mystery continues...
+Богдан Федько it's a very difficult material and takes a lot of concert time specifically (rehearsals and studio practice not enough) to play it in. it was the same with Fracture in 1973-74. even the album version (recorded live in late 1973) was a little flawed and had to be overdubbed in the studio. but by spring 1974 Robert played it impeccably, as the many live recordings show. I guess it was the same with FracKCtured. as both a guitarist and a fan I happen to know what a hell to play both pieces are, even for the maestro himself )
The first eighteen minutes were sublime. Pat and Trey in the first half of ConstruKction of Light were brilliant, and Adrian's vocal in the second half was a feat of focus and super fast mind. Then you have The Maestro, Robert!
Every iteration of King Crimson that includes Belew and Fripp, up to and including this one, demonstrates that each member is in it for the music. Nothing more, and, foremost, nothing less, than pure musicianship.
If they played with Crimson that was reason enough to buy other albums they played on. A number of albums in my collection were added that way. A few years ago one of my sisters asked me if I would sell some of my albums to her for her kids. Vinyl was in again. I told her I would just give them to her. So now another generation has all of my Crimson albums. And so it continues into the future.
Jimmy Hendrix once said in a Rolling Stone interview that Fripp was the Greatest Guitar Player he had ever see, Wonder what he would have thought of Belew?
@@svenjansen2134 LOL yea Sure except I had the paper in 69 but you know More! So I made a typo on his name do you feel Superior by pointing out other's Typos
Awesome is all I can say! Wow! Rare talent, exponentially! Every player on this stage is amazing, Mr. Fripp is a beast, Mr. Belew is right there with him! Bass and drums are all you could ask for! Lucky audience!
The improv jam starting at around 26 minutes is probably the best I have ever heard. Some may characterize this as noise but they know not what they speak; sorry to say. GBG NO EDITS.
Wow... what a great accompaniment to breakfast: a KC video which I have never seen before! TCOL and FraKctured (two of my all-time favorite KC pieces) are stunning.
Yeah, same here - but this is Adrian. Real genius and I really can't understand why he's not in Crimson anymore. Jakszyk is not even close to Adrian's magic.
I love you guys! Thanks🌞💪😊 The love surviving through the music!💓💓💓💓 I love you dad... Thanks for loving me! The love you! Thanks dad for teaching me how much you love me!
The improvs this band did were something quite different. The sheer hell they raised, the raw noise, is enough to catch me, but the relative coherency of a majority of the improvisations I've heard is something special.
@@alvarovallejos8465 Not sure I believe you...not that it matters much either way but I can't see someone going to a concert where three drummers are up front, loud, in your face... it leaving that person "cold" and then paying (KC tix can be $$) to go see a cold performance two more times. Sounds daft.
@@alvarovallejos8465 I had the opposite problem at Saratoga last summer: the bass overwhelmed everything! Personally I'd love to hear an _all acoustic_ KC album before they call it quits. I don't mean an "unplugged" concert: I mean new music.
something is missed forever, continually absent, in the King Crimson Saga - the mind blowing innovation, full of passion and inspiration at the same time, in a very intuitive way, not just as a cruel hypermechanical exercise on pyroclastic sound structures!
This particular lineup of KC near their creative peak. Unfortunately, did not last long. BTW, if you have any cherished guitar heroes, you might not want to watch.
Tosin Abasi doesn't reach Fripp's ankles. I like AAL, but in terms of creativity, Fripp is WAY far beyond of all. Everything in life is not shredding. Watch and learn, skipper.
And for good reason...that's an awful sound he is getting out of that kit. Where are the quiky time signatures of previous drummers? (bruford, anyone?) Seems like KC is MUCH more interested in HEAVY ConstruKction by this time. Not my cup of tea.
Some casual Robert Fripp moments:
10:45 - Yes.
11:10 - No, the image was not edited, the Crimson King himself smiled
14:19 - Casually starts Shredding out of nowhere
22:37 - Belew: "Play for me, stubby fingers", then Robert proceeds to casually play with a "Stubby fingers?!" face
23:36 - Casually changes the instrument to Piano, and starts doing the thing he is supposed to
32:18 - More casual Fripp play style
34:48 - Frippckethead appears
What I love about your comments is ONLY a CRIMSON Head would get them…..I’m laughing my head off
Frippckethead… spot on
16:42 - Oh god, Fripp will kill me.
16:50 - Peace, Robert!

Adrian Belew's vocal in The ConstruKction of Light is truly wonderful. A very talented musician, and seemingly a very nice man also.
Exactly! He sings it better than when he was younger.

If Fripp ever stood up and played, the world would end.
When Fripp turns on the distortion and starts to burn on Frakctured it's some of the most exciting playing I've ever experienced. He is a master musician.
This is absolutely amazing work.
Adrian Belew, the Ringer in King Crimson, Bowie, & Zappa's bands. Only guy who played with all 3.

Great concert! But I wish whoever it was that did the video would’ve shown some good shots of that incredible drummer! Geez!
Watching someone fripp’s age turn up distortion and shred in FraKctured pleases me so much.
He was only 54 here.
He's always come across as a stodgy old man, even when he was 18, but why does he use distortion and make loud music?
9:18 - "you ready Robert?"
Is he ever not ready?
Robert may have been ready, but he was still barely hanging on. And he wrote it for that explicit reason.
Awesome is all I can say! Wow! Rare talent, exponentially! Every player on this stage is amazing, Mr. Fripp is a beast, Mr. Belew is right there with him! Bass and drums are all you could ask for! Lucky audience!
The improv jam starting at around 26 minutes is probably the best I have ever heard. Some may characterize this as noise but they know not what they speak; sorry to say. GBG NO EDITS.
He has the Laid back approach to very serious timing with a frontal assault so kind yet audibly aggressive it is nearly incredible.
WOW!!! It's just F-Ng amazing!!! Thank you for live footage of such quality!
Fripp plays the guitar like it's an extension of his body What a Tripp
I wouldn't want to even tune my guitar in the same room as Robert Fripp.
He's kinda scary.
Wow... what a great accompaniment to breakfast: a KC video which I have never seen before! TCOL and FraKctured (two of my all-time favorite KC pieces) are stunning.
Thank you thank you DGM team!!!! what a SURPRISE!!!!
Always stunning to watch Adrian play TCoL. Just... how? How does anyone play that and sing at the same time??
MrLtia1234 Because he's Adrian Belew!
Love your channel :D
Well, if he couldn't do it, he couldn't do it, now could he :)
The man.!
Yeah, same here - but this is Adrian. Real genius and I really can't understand why he's not in Crimson anymore. Jakszyk is not even close to Adrian's magic.
Nobody can play like King Crimson..
God they're so good live, every bit as precise and perfect as on the studio albums
Spiritual, sensory and rebellious, music of these composers reveals secret impostures, explores serene pleasures, a world of resurfacing dreams !
Sem dúvidas a melhor banda de progressivo de todos os tempos (KC)
Flávio -- Brasil
Belew and Fripp are so great together, a sum greater than parts thing. Both absolutely amazing. This is priceless, man I wish I'd seen this in person.
Hmblldzy99: See 'Tosin Abasi' and think again. He does what this entire band does......on his own!!
im stunted, mr Fripp yu are a genious
Hot Damn.... This is so friggin" awesome. Thank you.
I think the camera guy has a hard on for guitar players. Someone should have briefed him there’s a drummer somewhere
Sweet most excellent footage. Gonna make me late for work since I cannot stop watching. How is this not everybody's favorie band?
What an awesome performance :D I was specially impressed by the Piano sound of Robert on the end of "The World's my oyster soup..."
Simplemente magnífico asombroso, iluminado, vaya bestialidad armónica y melódica.
Ídolos máximos.
I love you guys! Thanks🌞💪😊 The love surviving through the music!💓💓💓💓 I love you dad... Thanks for loving me! The love you! Thanks dad for teaching me how much you love me!
The improvs this band did were something quite different. The sheer hell they raised, the raw noise, is enough to catch me, but the relative coherency of a majority of the improvisations I've heard is something special.
They had a couple of themes they'd come back to in this era. The one here is evident in other improvs & tunes.
This is what the current line-up needs to really groove: one drummer, only one.
have you seen the three drummer line-up live ?
@@EastmanD I have, thrice, and it leaves me cold. Another downside is that you can't hear TLevin, he is drowned by the drums.
@@alvarovallejos8465 Not sure I believe you...not that it matters much either way but I can't see someone going to a concert where three drummers are up front, loud, in your face... it leaving that person "cold" and then paying (KC tix can be $$) to go see a cold performance two more times. Sounds daft.
@@alvarovallejos8465 I had the opposite problem at Saratoga last summer: the bass overwhelmed everything! Personally I'd love to hear an _all acoustic_ KC album before they call it quits. I don't mean an "unplugged" concert: I mean new music.
I agree Mr Roses, they are geniuses of progressive fusion Rock!
something is missed forever, continually absent, in the King Crimson Saga - the mind blowing innovation, full of passion and inspiration at the same time, in a very intuitive way, not just as a cruel hypermechanical exercise on pyroclastic sound structures!
That was an awesome concert! I even spottet myself in the audience
This particular lineup of KC near their creative peak. Unfortunately, did not last long.
BTW, if you have any cherished guitar heroes, you might not want to watch.
My cherished guitar hero is Robert Fripp, so this is just great
+Paul Carr The projeckts phase was amazing.
+The Court of the Crimson King "ditto"
If Fripp is your own pet guitar hero you won't want to watch 'Tobin Abasi'. He makes this entire band look old hat.
Tosin Abasi doesn't reach Fripp's ankles. I like AAL, but in terms of creativity, Fripp is WAY far beyond of all. Everything in life is not shredding. Watch and learn, skipper.
One of my favorite KC incarnations ♥
Como siempre, absolutamente asombrosos, wowoowww.
I get jelaous of how happy ade belew is while playing the Worlds my oyster soup.
The cameraman seems completely uninterested in the drummer.
jwbrown1968 Ain't that always so!
And for good reason...that's an awful sound he is getting out of that kit. Where are the quiky time signatures of previous drummers? (bruford, anyone?) Seems like KC is MUCH more interested in HEAVY ConstruKction by this time. Not my cup of tea.
i dont like drummers and tea....dont show any of those things
@@mhiraldo ... you don't hear quirky time signatures here?
There's a drummer???
THE LOVE LIVES IN THE MUSIC
Thanks for this.
