King Crimson

Taken from the last of four UK concerts performed in May 2009, Live at Coventry Cathedral captures an atmospheric and melodic performance and highlights Travis's incisive lyricism and Fripp's unique solo guitar voice.

This is the second collaborative album by the duo, following the warmly received Thread (2008) and includes a rare performance of the King Crimson classic, Moonchild.

"A music that is as poetic as it is powerful.” - Sid Smith (Classic Rock/Record Collector)

Recorded at DGM Soundworld by David Singleton, with subsequent editing, mixing and mastering by Steven Wilson, Thread comprises nine improvised pieces by Theo Travis and Robert Fripp .

This unique and almost inevitable collaboration has yielded a beautiful sequence of recordings that artfully avoids the clichés routinely associated with “ambient” and “improv”, while wholly encompassing the core elements of both forms of music.

Unfashionably, perhaps, in an era where music is often portrayed as ephemeral or disposable, it is an album that rewards repeated listening, revealing new depths with each play.

A uniquely atmospheric fusion of Theo Travis's looped flute and Robert Fripp's trademark Soundscapes, this free download is one of a series of improvisations recorded by the duo at DGM SoundWorld in January 2007. An ideal taster for Theo Travis's forthcoming album, Double Talk.

This track appears under the new title 'Land Beyond The Forest' on duo's album 'Thread' (available from Burning Shed).
