King Crimson - Sartori In Tangier backing Track

Stormy Mundy Selection (Occasional Series - Acts of Random Archive Rummaging)
This video is an edited extract from the latest Stormy Mundy Selection, as featured on dgmlive.com www.dgmlive.co...
The 80s quartet was well known for its adoption of new musical technology such as the Simmons electronic kit, the Stick, and the Roland GR300 guitar synthesiser. One sound notably absent in this period was the Mellotron. Instead, perhaps influenced by his close proximity to Barry Andrews’ Crumar organ in The League Of Gentlemen, Fripp opted to use a small and highly mobile Roland organ he purchased in 1980.
Sartori In Tangiers, built around Tony Levin’s distinctive Stick pattern and Bruford’s assertive propulsion, is a good showcase for the keyboard. In this new stripped-back mix by Alex ‘Stormy’ Mundy, it moves from its ‘background’ status up into the foreground. Co-mingling with Frippetronics that seep into the track, the Roland organ’s delicate, shimmering translucency makes a fine contrast to the otherwise barrelling quality of the piece.

As much as I love Robert and Adrian’s playing on 80s Crimson, I thought this was really cool and would love to hear more of these stripped down versions KC songs!

Currently trying to collect every KC album on vinyl, this just reminded me how amazing Beat is and it's one of the ones I can't seem to find :c

[@NJMusic2007]

For some reason, almost nobody really likes beat, and its hard to find a vinyl for it. I love beat, prob my favourite 80s KC album

Did KC record mostly live, all together in the studio?

[@kingcrimson]

Dear @ColonelJ1 In the 80's they certainly did, there is very little in the way of outtakes, which I presume were recorded over, or deleted. The only overdubs which might of taken place, would be the solos. Best Alex

[@scottdorfler2551]

​@@kingcrimsonI can't imagine there were many overdubs in the 70s either. The way they fed off each other. Maybe the vocals and an occasional solo. Possibly a couple tracks off of "Red" were overdubbed. I'm just guessing, but 70-73 definitely has that incredible live power. The kind that's lost when bands overdub. I'll take an imperfection here and there to get that live sound. That energy is worth the extra time and trouble. Though only the best can really make it work.

[@kingcrimson]

Dear @@scottdorfler2551 In the 1972/74, era, The basic backings were always recorded first, and the best of the drum takes were used, but then the rest was potentially overdubbed. Robert certainly recorded his parts after the bass and drums were laid down, and on the multi-tracks there may have been an alternate take, which didn't get used. The Mellotrons were also added later, as was David's Violin. These are all available on the 50th Anniversary of Lark's Tongues In Aspic.

That was very interesting! Not sure if any of Adrian's parts were in this mix or not. Unless Robert is only playing keys here and Adrian is playing the guitar. Still, I love these versions where the layers are stripped away to expose some of the underworkings within the production of their songs.

[@kingcrimson]

Dear @brettmarlar4154, There are no guitars in this mix, it's just the backing. Best Stormy.

@@kingcrimson I can hear lightly distorted fast strummed notes/chords in the first minute, is it Tony?
