2018 two CD history of King Crimson featuring many extracts and tracks appearing on CD for the first time, including many by the current line-up. Packaged in DVD sized fold out digipak style book case with 24 page booklet. The Elements tour box was originally devised specifically as a one-off edition for the 2014 King Crimson tour but has since become an in-demand series with subsequent editions in 2015, 16 and 17 becoming firm sellers. As with previous releases in the series, the full variety of King Crimson's music can be represented over two CDs with extracts from rehearsals, new live recordings, elements from studio recordings, full tracks, alternate takes and finished recordings from 1969-2017, many of which make their first appearance on CD. Every line-up is featured across this set. The accompanying booklet features sleeve-notes by co-compiler Sid Smith, photos of memorabilia, full info about the current tour and a number of band and individual photos of the now eight member King Crimson line-up.

King Crimson have done it again.
Brilliant box set/tour programme.What a good idea from Mr Fripp and co.No more being ripped off £ 20 for a programme with out of date dodgy photos and a bit of text written by some ghost writer who doesnt know the band.This is brilliant stuff and hopefully many more groups will follow this example of how it should be done.

2018 elements box set - disc 1 only
...not got to disc 2 yet. This element is stunning on quality...there are some quality issues with a few old pieces and extracts but in general this is a refreshing, quiet and LOUD set. Love it...maybe cd 2 tonight....

Interesting Package
A very good package great music a decent booklet outlining some background of the band . King Crimson are still an amazing band as their 2018 British concerts proved. Well worth investing

Perfect complement to the concert
I followed the King Crimson tour 2018 and I wanted to hear more of the great music they play. I definitely recommend this tour box (and the previous ones).

It's a great live performance with re workings of classic tracks
Wasn't sure what to expect on re run of old material. It's a great live performance with re workings of classic tracks. Can't stop listening.
