The initial band featured Mel Collins on saxophones, flute and keyboards, Michael Giles on drums, Peter Giles on bass, Ian McDonald on alto saxophone, flute and keyboards, and Jakko Jakszyk on guitar and vocals.
Ian Wallace, another former Crimson member from that period, replaced Michael Giles in early 2003 after the band's Japanese tour.
[4] The band has been inactive since 2004; with members based in different countries, touring proved to be logistically and financially difficult.
Jakszyk and Collins went on to record as a trio with founding Crimson guitarist Robert Fripp (and with rhythmic support from fellow members Tony Levin and Gavin Harrison) on the Scarcity of Miracles album in 2011.
This title was used by the 1969 lineup of King Crimson, which played the song live before it was recorded for In the Wake of Poseidon.
