[2015-11-06] King Crimson "The Elements Tour Box 2015" 2CD set (DGM)

Description
2CD history of King Crimson featuring many extracts & tracks appearing on CD for the first time - released on the final day of the current EU tour. Packaged in DVD sized fold out digi-pack style book case with 24 page booklet. Originally available only at concert venues on King Crimson's sold out European 2015 tour. Much sought after by fans, hence more widespread release. The Elements tour box was devised specifically for the current King Crimson tour & as a companion volume to the highly successful 2014 tour box. The compilation has already been a big seller throughout the UK/EU tour. The depth & variety of King Crimson's archives allows for the presentation of such "alternate best of/introduction to... " style releases, providing a fascinating audio history of the band featuring extracts of the current line-up in rehearsal pre-tour, new live recordings taken from last year's sold out US tour, elements from studio recordings, full tracks, alternate takes & finished recordings from 1969-2015, many of which make their first appearance on CD. Every line-up is featured across the 2CD set. The set also provides tantalizing audio extracts & hints of forthcoming King Crimson releases. The accompanying booklet features sleeve-notes by co-compiler Sid Smith, photos of memorabilia, full info about the current tour & a number of band & individual photos of the line-up taken by band member Tony Levin.

Note: Amazon's initial pre-order listing shows this as an import, but it's actually the domestic release.

This was sold initially at the shows last year,.

Anyone else jump on this? I have the 2014 set....which I like a lot. The fact that 2015 includes 20th CSM from the tour made it a no-brainer...as it was amazing on tour. I was disappointed the live release of the tour did not include...and that it was only one disk.
Preordered this yesterday.
