King Crimson Larks Tongues In Aspic Vinyl Panegyric
The albums from the 1972-74 box set - featuring the 40th anniversary Steven Wilson & Robert Fripp mixes -  now available in limited editions as separate titles on 200g vinyl.
 
With its raw tone, inspired improvisations and hard hitting odd-metered rhythms, Larks' Tongues marked a radical departure for this most forward thinking of groups and was the first to include Bill Bruford and John Wetton as band members. 
 
----------
 
Originally begun in 2009 by Steven Wilson & Robert Fripp for King Crimson’s 40th anniversary, a series of new mixes were prepared in both stereo & 5.1 formats & issued as CD/DVD-a sets. 
 
Consumer demand for the remixes on vinyl led to two boxed sets being issued in late 2018 covering the periods from 1969 – 74 complete with an album of alt. mixes of Larks’ Tongues in Aspic, a 2LP set of rarities (using the sleeve of the original “Young Person’s Guide to King Crimson”) & an expanded, remixed 2LP set of USA.
 
Limited to 2000 copies per title. Cut by Jason Mitchell at Loud Mastering.
