King Crimson – Lark’s Tongues in Aspic: 2023 Steven Wilson Mixes & 2023 David Singleton Elemental Mixes

Description

Recorded from mid-January to the beginning of February and released in late March of 1973, ‘Larks’ Tongues in Aspic’ became one of the most acclaimed of King Crimson’s albums as well as establishing its reputation as a key album from one of rock music’s most significant years. Almost half a century after its release, Steven Wilson undertook the job of mixing the album for Dolby Atmos, in the process, preparing new stereo and 5.1 mixes. The new stereo mixes are presented on the first LP of this 2LP set and are – no doubt informed by the more adventurous mix techniques allowed by the Atmos process – quite different in approach, more expansive than the earlier mixes as released in 2012, while still retaining and enhancing the core power of the original material.
