2CD set with new artwork, containing all the original diaries and notes from the original editions, this remains an essential recording. The 1973/74 touring line-up of King Crimson has a well-deserved reputation as one of the most dynamic, powerful, exciting live rock bands of that or any other era of rock's roughly half-century chronology. The Great Deceiver, originally issued in 1992 as a 4CD collection of some of those concerts, has earned a fine reputation as a definitive chronicle of the band in performance. At the time of release there were about 120 bootleg recordings of King Crimson live concerts. While there was some duplication of shows trading under different names, the bulk of the recordings concentrated on this quartet line-up that became an enduring influence for a generation of musicians. But there was no official document of the live band. USA, the single vinyl album drawn from some of the band's final shows, had yet to be issued on CD. So the band's live reputation rested somewhere between those lucky concert attendees who'd seen them at the time & a variety of poor & worse copies of copies of recordings now being enshrined with all their faults on discs of dubious origin. Robert Fripp had an answer to this dilemma in the form of a series of live multi-track recordings from 1973/74.
