Prog
fans rejoice! A new live CD capturing a set of King Crimson songs
performed by District 97 and former King Crimson lead singer John Wetton
has been released on Primary Purpose via Cherry Red Records.
'One More Red
Night: Live In Chicago' includes three songs from the iconic landmark
album 'Red’; which inspired many musicians including Kurt Cobain. This
CD also captures several other well-known songs from the three King
Crimson studio albums John Wetton played and sang on, plus their earlier
hit “21st Century Schizoid Man”. This is the first release of this
recording and features many tracks which are now rarely heard live.
“I've said
it before, and I maintain that D97 is the best young progressive band
around right now. Gifted players, great material, and a brilliant,
charismatic singer in Leslie Hunt. Their shows are an exciting pleasure
to attend, and I am proud to work, and be associated with them.” - John Wetton, Annapolis, October 1,2014.
District 97's drummer and 'One More Red Night' producer, Jonathan Schang, says “The
first Crimson song I ever played live with John was 'Lament'. To hear
'that voice' coming from right in front of me, seemingly made only
stronger by the passage of time, was an experience I shall never forget.
Getting to know John more closely, both as a musician and a human
being, is an honor and a privilege. I'm thrilled that our joint
interpretations of his iconic work with King Crimson are now available
for all to enjoy.”
