Heavy ConstruKction is a live three CD set by the band
King Crimson, released by
Discipline Global Mobile records on 1 December 2000.[2] The album features recordings of the
European tour of May to July 2000, from DATs made at the front-of-house mixing desk.[3]
King Crimson's 2000 European tour was conducted to promote the studio album The Construkction of Light. The band members at the time of the tour were the “double duo” quartet of guitarists
Robert Fripp and
Adrian Belew, Warr guitarist
Trey Gunn and drummer
Pat Mastelotto. Longtime drummer
Bill Bruford had left the group in 1998, and bassist
Tony Levin was not included in this particular King Crimson lineup due to other musical commitments.
The third disc features improvisations from different shows, which are often spliced together to create, according to the liner notes, "a cohesive presentation out of a series of incoherent events".
Disc 2 of the album contained video footage, playable with Windows Media Player software. A password was required to access this video footage.[3][4][5]
Discs 1 & 2 recorded and mixed by George Glossop, and produced by David Singleton and Alex R. Mundy. Disc 3 recorded by Ken Latchney, and produced and mixed by Pat Mastelotto and Bill Munyon.
