King Crimson Live in Hyde Park, London
King Crimson Live in Hyde Park, London is a live album by the band King Crimson, released through the King Crimson Collectors' Club in September 2002.
The album documents King Crimson's performance at the Hyde Park Festival of July 5, 1969, held in London, England. It has been estimated that half a million people attended this outdoor concert, which was headlined by the Rolling Stones. King Crimson were the opening act. Their setlist was cut for the occasion, and the last track was much shorter than usual. Nonetheless, the consensus was that their performance was a success, which significantly increased the band's reputation.
The CD also includes two bonus tracks. The first is a series of excerpts from a press conference, held by all five members of the original King Crimson along with the band's road management. This conference was recorded at the release of King Crimson's Epitaph box set, featuring four CDs of concert material by the original band. The conference was held at the InterContinental London hotel on March 15, 1997.
The second bonus track is an instrumental recording of "21st Century Schizoid Man", recorded at Morgan Studios in London on June 12, 1969. Guitarist Robert Fripp has acknowledged that his solo on this version is "dismal in extremis", though noting that it was intended only as a guide track (and was subsequently replaced by a "proper" solo).
The album was originally scheduled to be released in August 2000, but was held up by a dispute between members of the 1969 line-up of King Crimson. The liner notes include comments from Fripp, Ian McDonald, Michael Giles, Peter Sinfield and manager David Enthoven.

King Crimson will release their long awaited ‘1969’ box set in October, which features a forensic examination of their live and studio activities in that year and includes 20 CDs, two DVDs and four blu-ray audio discs! This complete audio history of the band’s debut features a vaguely ridiculous amount of content, including a new Dolby Atmos mix by Steven Wilson, six discs worth of session material on CD & Blu-Ray for the first time (fully mixed by David Singleton) and a further disc of newly compiled studio material.
The box also includes the original studio album, every alternate take known to exist, every mix known to exist, all live recordings known to exist and a selection of pre/Crimson 1968 recordings.
The set – as with the previous boxed seven sets in the series – comes packaged in a vinyl sized box complete with a booklet featuring an introduction by Robert Fripp, notes about the source tapes from David Singleton, sleeve-notes by King Crimson biographer Sid Smith, previously unseen photos from the recordings sessions, additional memorabilia & a protective outer sleeve.
All the blu-rays and DVDs are playable everywhere and the full track listing and other details are below. The Complete 1969 Recordings will be released on 6 November (was 30 October and previously 23 October).
