LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

• Double CD of performances at the Paradise Theater on July 18, 1989
• Originally broadcast on WBCN-FM in Boston
• Featuring tracks from both Mr Music Head and King Crimson tunes

Whether in King Crimson, as a sideman to the stars, or in his solo and side projects, Adrian Belew coaxes an extraordinarily wide and wild range of sounds from his guitar. Many are uncorked on this double CD of performances at the Paradise Theater on July 18, 1989, broadcast on WBCN-FM in Boston. Most of the songs from his just-released Mr. Music Head are featured, along with a few King Crimson tunes and an encore cover of Roy Orbison’s “Oh, Pretty Woman.”
