Much maligned and misunderstood when originally released in 1972, Earthbound has stood the test of time rather well. Fripp was willing to challenge the expectations of live audiences and record buyers - not for the first or last time. Crimson was always like an untamed beast - especially in its live incarnations. Earthbound serves as an aural snapshot in time of some of those wild moments. Remastered as part of the 30th Anniversary series, Earthbound's line-up had already disbanded by the time of the album's release. Originally released in 1972, Earthbound was King Crimson's first ever live album recorded during what was, at the time, King Crimson's final tour. It features King Crimson's 1971 touring line-up of Robert Fripp, Boz Burrell, Mel Collins and Ian Wallace. Earthbound was only ever released on vinyl and did not appear on CD until its recent 30th Anniversary release.
