Exposures

About this item

The largest in the series, Exposures is the ninth boxset release collecting King  Crimson / Robert Fripp material from 1969 to 2008. Featuring 32 discs (26xCD/3xDVD audio/3xBlu-Ray audio) presented in a 12” box with a 48 page booklet containing extensive notes by Sid Smith and Al Okada plus memorabilia such as tickets, posters, press releases and more.  One of the most comprehensive boxed sets devoted to a single period of an artist’s  career, Exposures features the complete collection of Robert Fripp’s studio and live  solo material from 1977-1983, covering the period from the first Exposure sessions  to the end of The League of Gentlemen and final Frippertronics concerts. Steven Wilson mixes of Exposure (in two versions), Under Heavy Manners, The  League of Gentlemen studio recordings and numerous unreleased tracks from the  albums’ sessions appear in Dolby Atmos, DTS-HD 5.1 Surround and 24/96 hi-res  stereo audio on Blu-Ray discs 1 and 3. David Singleton mixes of God Save the Queen, Let the Power Fall and the Washington Square Church Frippertronics album appear in DTS-HD Surround (Quad/4.1) and in hi- res stereo ranging from 24/48 (WSC), 24/96 GSTQ) to 24/192 (LTPF) on Blu-Ray discs 1 and 3. In addition, all editions and versions of Exposure (including previously unreleased),  original masters of all of the albums from the period and a wealth of additional  material, much of it previously unreleased appear on Blu-Ray in hi-res stereo audio  on those discs. Two further Blu-Ray discs present the complete DGM archive of Frippertronics  loops, masters and concert performances - over 68 hours of music in 24/48 hi-res  stereo Three DVDs feature the main albums in 5.1, quad and hi-res stereo. Twenty five  CDs present material including the earliest existing master loops, all of the albums in  new Steven Wilson and David Singleton mixes, plus original mixes newly mastered  and a number of studio and live discs featuring previously unreleased and/or music  new to disc. After King Crimson's dissolution in 1974, Robert Fripp embarked on a lengthy  sabbatical away from the public eye. His relocation from Great Britain to New York in  February 1978 marked his return as a producer, solo artist, and ‘wild card’  collaborator with an impressive roster of artists including Daryl Hall, Blondie, Peter  Gabriel, and David Bowie. Fripp's first solo album, Exposure, was released in 1979.  A further two solo records, Under Heavy Manners/God Save The Queen and Let The  Power Fall followed, and in 1980 he formed The League Of Gentlemen. Described  as a New Wave dance band, this led to King Crimson's reformation in 1981.   This set is a fitting testament to an intensely creative and radically diverse chapter in  Robert Fripp’s career.
