Some Roland keyboard-generated Frippertronics provides a delicate web of walk on music for the Crims before the real McCoy begins the slow intro into Discipline. Once your ears settle into the ambience of this somewhat muddy audience tape, it’s possible to hear the crowd enthusiastically clapping along to the early part of this signature piece as the complex lines echoe about the rafters. “Happy Halloween” says Belew “King Crimson right now has two American boys, Tony and myself and two English boys, Robert and Bill...let’s show them real American Halloween cheer...” or words to that effect before launching into a barnstorming version of Red. Matte Kudasai sends out the sunlight across the venue before things get darker and more pensive with The Sheltering Sky. A real highlight of this pretty strong setlist, it highlights the more free-ranging aspects of Robert’s soloing while giving Ade a mighty fine platform to showcase his skills as a texturalist. Tonight’s version isn’t quite as out there in the early part as on previous evenings but not for nothing does the solo at the end of the piece draw appreciative applause from the punters in Pittsburgh. Especially interesting tonight is the middle section of Manhattan which goes off on an extended wander around some pretty remote back alleys, and ‘watch out now’ for a decidedly jazz opening section of Elephant Talk from Tony Levin.
