quoting wikipedia: King Crimson founder Robert Fripp approved of the group, stating: "The CJ3 have respectfully and irreverently taken eight Crimson classics, repositioned them in the musical spectrum, and delivered their first songbook with superb musicianship in service to wit and invention"
I've been listening to the Crimson Jazz trio all day whilst doing a microbiology laboratory write up for University. I predict that it has improved my work 10 fold!
I was completely blessed to get to see and hear the Crimson Jazz Trio perform all these songs live at a little jazz club in Los Angeles. They were every bit as amazing live as you could imagine. Thank you, you crazy geniuses! Ian Wallace was such a very cool guy too. Sheer brilliance.
Beyond the anarchies, Crimso denounced the apparent order and the paradoxes of an insensible world. Spiritual, sensory and rebellious, these poets for once not so cursed, reveals secret impostures, explores serene enjoyments, a world of rekindled dreams !!!
This is just toooooo frigging cool. I would never has suspected you could do this to 21st Century Schizoid Man. Love all your incredible arrangements of King Crimson music, fellas. Is Robert Fripp hip to you guys?
very skilled however you managed to completely kill all the tension that made the first version so fantastic. you filled it out and softened the edges and killed it. I was hoping for some almost beatnik Spartan jazz edginess...so disappointed
