Everything that you have heard about the 5.1 remix that Steve Wilson did with Robert Fripp is true. This beast of a record is mind blowing in 5.1 surround! Where to begin, there is so much to unpack. The listener will discover a treasure trove of sounds had been hiding in the prior mix.Even BIG TOP will get a listener’s attention as it has become a parade of nightmares that starts on the listener’s right, marches through the listener’s skull and then marches off to the listener’s leftI’ve added the picture to my review just in case others have the same problem that I encountered after unwrapping. The slip case consists of a material that is much lighter than the material found on the slip case for In the Court of the Crimson King and the Reconstruction of Light. It was darn near impossible to get the disk set out of the slip case, even when pushing from other end. Eventually I did get it out of the slip case; my wife came up with this great idea of wrapping a ribbon around the digipak and then leaving a couple of pieces out where the disc could be pulled out using the ribbon. I’m sure that eventually there will be enough wear on the cardboard and I won’t need the ribbon any longer. I wonder why they used this flimsy stuff for Lizard. Annoying. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Lizard is RESURRECTED! Amazing 5.1 surround sound! *by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2010* Marty posted a great review, and I would like to add some points. I'm one of those King Crimson fans that was a huge fan years ago (even before CD's), and I'm getting back to them again. What I remember of this album is that it was my least played Crimson album (and I had all of them), with the possible execption of Earthbound, which just sounded crappy - and even Fripp will admit that!My used copy of the Lizard LP was bought around 1987. It has a lovely shiny cover with a horribly scratched record - So scratched I had to add a gram of weight to the needle to overcome a skip in the title track. I made a point to play this old record before I listened to this 5.1 DTS version that arrived in the mail last night. What a huge, huge contrast. On this new DVD you can pick up every instrument's tiny little nuance. And every instument has it's place in the 3D space of your listening room - and sometimes they move about in a natural manor consistant with the orignal stereo recording. Just like DVD-A of "In the Court of the Crimson King", the recording is clear, crisp, and detailed, with no pops, hiss, hum, wow or flutter. Amazing since the tapes used were 40 years old. I have to add that I'm having a hard time believing what I'm hearing - I'm hearing detail and instruments that were completely lost in that old scratchy record of mine. Just for fun, pull down the levels on all but one rear speaker and you will see what I mean.I certantly have a new appreciation for this underdog Crimson album. It really is a great disk - it's like I've discovered it for the first time. I'm seriously impressed with everthing about this re-issue. The sound, especially, but the packaging, booklet, and bonus tracks on the disks are great. The only thing missing is a concert video like Red 5.1 has - of course there may not be one available since this lineup broke up soon after the recording was made.A really top-notch product here. I highly recommend it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars great dusting off for undeservedly ignored work *by N***Z on Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2012* For those who were bludgeoned into submission by "In the Court....", and puzzled by the blandness of "In the Wake...", "Lizard" was even more perplexing when initially released in 1970.Pointy rythms, discordances, (a not yet famous) Jon Anderson's elfin vocals, and strident mellotron, and a perception of discontinuity and stuff being chucked about by some musical poultrgeist!Enter Steven Wilson and digital wizzardry.Robert Fripp's unloved child become a prodigal son.40 years later, I'm gratified that a true afficionado has taken this work and created the most wondrous sonic make-over...every bit as good as the "Aqualung" effort.I agreed with the criticisms of Lizard at the outset, but maintained what some saw as a perverse love of it.Steven Wilson has peered into the soul of this work, finding its true meaning, and made out of the master recordings more than its creator realized was there. A rare feat.The esentially percussive bases are preserved, but less harsh, the mellotron is less strident, and the improved resolution seems to have sharpened the vocals, especially Anderson's, without making them more than they need to be. I suggest the overall sonic balance is vastly improved, and much of what was previously easily missed, now comes forth to more rightful places. So many "I don't remember that" episodes.Now all the instruments sparkle, and the previously difficult "Happy Families", and "Indoor Games" sound more like a good-time had by all. (still don't get the sickly laugh bit, though)"Cirkus", "Lady of the dancing Water" and the title track shine as never before, and "Bolero" has every bit the legitimacy of Ravel's namesake work, in fact, I suggest more genuinely beautiful.This set comes as a CD with very recent remastering bit by bit from Mr Wilson, helpful notes from Mr Fripp, and the DVD several stereo or 5:1 formats for your delectation, . And Wonderment. If you ever shied away from this work..get this, and grock it now. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/15478794-lizard-40th-anniversary-series](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/15478794-lizard-40th-anniversary-series) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
