The Complete 1969 Recordings
The Complete 1969 Recordings is a box set from King Crimson, released on 6 November 2020 on Inner Knot. It is the band's ninth major box set, and it gathers material from the year of their first studio album, In the Court of the Crimson King, spread across 26 discs: 20 CDs, 2 DVDs and 4 Blu-rays.
For anyone who loves that debut, this is the deep dive. The new session material has been remixed to stereo by David Singleton, and Steven Wilson contributes a fresh Dolby Atmos remix of the original album. A booklet of previously unseen photographs from the recording sessions, along with memorabilia, adds a sense of the band at work in the studio as their progressive rock sound took shape.
