By all accounts, the somewhat unexpected 2014 King Crimson tour was a resounding success and Live at the Orpheum is the first offering for those who were unable to attend. The band had been reinvented with a combination of new and returning players and the set list consisted largely of tunes that hadn’t been performed live since the ’70s, if at all. The main wild card was the three-drummer front line, which easily could have turned into a mess, even without music as challenging as Crimson’s.

The Last Dance (CD4) features Tommy Lopez (drums), John Smithson (bass) and Ovidio Lopez (guitar) with some classic slide guitar from Ken on ‘Crying’.

The time frame in which the Zombies formed, created their best-known material and initially broke up was roughly six years, burning bright from around 1962 until going into the recording of their 1968 masterpiece Odessey and Oracle knowing they were going to disband after it came out. Their second act has been considerably longer, with founding members Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone officially taking back up the Zombies mantle in the early 2000s and producing multiple albums of new material since then.

Death and loss loom large over the mournful Memento Mori, Depeche Mode’s 15th album and first without founding member Andy Fletcher. Started long before his passing in 2022 and influenced more by the effects of a global pandemic, the somber set took on even more gravity and significance after he died. Understandably subdued and emotionally heavy, this is the sound of two old friends reeling from tragedy while keeping an eye on the days that remain.

This collection, remastered for SACD, covers the Zombies’ short and tasteful career, spanning their 1964-1967 years for Decca Records, and their single album, the classic Odessey & Oracle, for Epic Records in 1968. Two versions of “She’s Not There” are included here, one the so-called “stereo underdub” version that lacks the snappy drum overdub that gives the superior single version its crisp, edgy feel. There are also two mixes of “Time of the Season,” the familiar version and an alternate mix that features a little more organ in the verse sections.

Guitarist Ron Wood has been a member of several classic British rock outfits, but the one that he’s undoubtedly most associated with is the Rolling Stones, with whom he’s been a member since 1976. A founding member of the Birds, a London R&B group, Wood joined the latter-day Creation in 1968 before entering Jeff Beck’s employ as second guitarist and then bass player.

When RPWL singer Yogi Lang says (in the liner notes) that “the world depends on our ideals and moral concepts, and so it finally depends on our mental development,” one can only hope that the “we” he’s referring to is humanity in general, not his band specifically. (One also rather wishes that he’d clarify that bit about equating mental development with morality — is the problem with tyrants and rapists that they aren’t sufficiently smart?)

All of the elements are in place for the sound that would reach its studio peak with the next release, Rock On, and culminate with the classic Live at the Fillmore album.
