Is the first P1 show a success? On one hand, hell no, but on another hand, absolutely. Of the four ProjeKcts from this time period, P1 is the one that most defies an attempt to compile a "best of" compilation. The best way to experience P1 is to get the bundle and work through it in order, because the moments of uncertainty and unfocus are just as important as the ones that work well. This night is short on instant-classic improvs, but you get to hear the musicians finding their footing in real-time, responding to what isn't working and trying to seize upon the moments that do, and that's what makes this show worth acquiring.
Written by William Jenks. Night 1: A bit noodly, but still interesting. Two quick remarks: 1 If you are a Bruford fan, there is a lot of Brufordism in this show for you to enjoy. Not fancy all the time, but unmistakeable and inventive; 2 Levin I assume plays some stuff way,way down low that is fun to really hear, so this is best heard on nice speakers or good headphones that can play Hz. The first few tracks here are more "noodly" than my favorites improvised or not.
They are seeking direction and just playing something, or at least that's how it feels to me. Yes, of course there are some great moments. However, toward the end of the first set, we start to get more consistently fun stuff.
Set ii opens the same way, with 1ii1 having some great coordinated guitar lines and some great base work. Tune 2ii1 brings us some of those "electronic marimbas" pseudorimbas? Overall, an excellent show. Written by Christopher DeVito. The ProjeKcts were presented as "research and development" arms of King Crimson, but I quickly found that I had no interest in listening to them on those terms.
Instead, I simply listen to each ProjeKct on its own terms, as a musical end in itself. This is a positive attribute. ProjeKct One feels, to me, like the most fully realized of the ProjeKcts. I think that each of the eight sets played and recorded over this four-night gig is a great album in itself and the whole thing would make a great eight-disc box set. Actually I made my own disc set, adding an minute "best of" disc for each night. Set one of the first night has a spacious, loose feel to it.
Gunn takes a great solo on this one. Set two starts off with a monstrous Levin fuzz bass groove 1ii1, or "The Grunch". The guitars join in, Bruford lays down a beat, and the tune settles into some midtempo heavy-metal atmospheres. Gunn takes a particularly intense solo while Fripp supports with organ chords, then solos as the rhythm becomes choppy and nervous, eventually breaking down. Fripp opens things up with some Soundscape chimes to start the next improv, which meanders down some interesting paths in no particular hurry.
The rest of set two continues to provide varied textures, rhythms, and tempos. This flows into a slow, stately tempo 1ii4, or "Swan" with some beautiful Fripp guitar playing swooping over and around and through the music. The rest of the set continues to move through varied territory, from Gunn and Fripp melodies over slow soundscapes to exaggeratedly abstract, almost THRAK-ish blues-rock, with vibes along the way real ones from Bruford, who drops a stick for comedy, and digital vibes from Fripp.
The set closer 1ii7, or "MenaceScapes" builds a cathedral of leaded-glass guitar lines from Gunn and Fripp. Written by Dan Summers. Review Title. Your Rating. Your Review. Pat Bill And Robert.
