King Crimson - Meltdown Live at Teatro Metropolitan, Mexico City
In July 2017, when King Crimson performed their live recording “Meltdown” at Teatro Metropólitan in Mexico City, they were riding high on the success of their recent studio album, "The Elements of King Crimson." Released in 2017, this album marked their return after a decade of focused touring rather than studio production. The band's lineup during this period showcased a blend of old and new talent, with legendary guitarist Robert Fripp leading a dynamic ensemble that included Mel Collins and Jakko Jakszyk. This performance captured the multi-faceted energy of their live shows, which are known for their intricate musicianship and improvisational flair. Interestingly, King Crimson's ability to blend genres—everything from progressive rock to avant-garde—shines in this concert, reflecting their ever-evolving sound. Fans and critics alike appreciate how this live recording encapsulated the essence of a band that's both a turning point in rock history and still pushing boundaries in music today.
