Heavenly HVNLP35CD

This album contains "The M62 song" about which amazon say -

Quiet reprieve comes with M62, a delicate haunting reworking of King Crimson's "Moonchild", bizarrely recorded under the M62 flyover in Manchester, its desolate atmospherics are juxtaposed to the remainder of the album. (hmm, nothing much new there then ;-) *PjS*)

And here is how it is credited. Not, as such, the shortest credit of all time.

("The M62 song " by Williams/Williams/Goodwin/Fripp/McDonald/Lake/Giles/Sinfield an adaptation of "Moonchild" by King Crimson, written byFripp/McDonald/Lake/Giles/Sinfield and published by BMG Music Publishing Ltd. Used by permission. All rights reserved.)

non-streaming audio (2,946 kb)
German artist Christian Langer has given us easily the best cover of Moonchild to date. The piano, which takes the place of Fripp's acoustic guitar in the original, is particularly nice. I also like the double bass and that faithful to the original drone in the background. The entire arrangement is appropriately spare and just superb. Mr. Langer and co. could probably cover the entire album and do a very good job of it. Moonchild was recorded live in Stuttgart, Germany on January 10, 2002. - Jon

21st Century Schizoid Man

"There are few players who would be brave enough to attempt an acoustic rendition of King Crimson's classic '21st Century Schizoid Man,' but Travis excises the instrumental section in the middle of the piece, and turns it into a truly schizophrenic take, slowing down the rapid-fire ensemble passage from the centre of the original piece to half-time and positing it as a hip hop-inflected theme, going into double-time for the solo section and then returning to the half-time theme." - All About Jazz (review)
