40th Anniversary Stereo Mix by Steven Wilson and Robert Fripp on 200g Super-Heavyweight Vinyl for the First Time; Mastered by Jason Mitchell at Loud Mastering from Original Studio Masters

Seven years after King Crimson had ‘ceased to exist', the band's reinvention as a new quartet consisting of Robert Fripp, Bill Bruford, Adrian Belew and Tony Levin brought about a surprising new era, which delighted fans old and new. Stylistically very different from the King Crimson of the '70s, this new line-up incorporated rock with electronica, funk, pure pop, modern avant-garde, and a complex variety of musical textures and influences. The intricacies of the playing and details in the compositional style became a key influence on sub-genres such as math rock. Three Of A Perfect Pair (1984) was the first of the group's 1980s albums to reach the Top 30 in the UK album charts, signalling the increasing popularity of the '80s line-up and helping to ensure the group's status as one of the most interesting and innovative bands of the decade. 40th anniversary stereo mix by Steven Wilson and Robert Fripp on 200g super-heavyweight vinyl for the first time.
