Hi,

The King Crimson debut album In the Court of the Crimson King just vanished from the catalog, this used to be the link to the album: https://www.deezer.com/en/album/78808872

Now the link is dead and the album missing from the King Crimson discography.

Has Robert Fripp or someone else decided to withdraw the record from Deezer ?!

I’m a huge fan of the band, so this is really disappointing.

Hi @charleshubert.roger !

We're really sorry to know the tracks you love isn't on Deezer. Not all artists and rights' holders choose to add their music on our platform. We always respect their wishes so some music isn't available or might be temporarily removed. All text you can see in link below

Hi @Nina Nebo: I can understand this, but I’m wondering if someone from Deezer can check this out? Because this album is availible at others like Amazon Music, Tidal and Spotify.

Hi @awesomemac 

 

There is many others things which can decide about adding or removing music from some platform .
Music Rights Holder means any record label, music publisher, songwriter, artist, photographer, or any other holder of any rights in any sound recording, musical composition, artwork (including album art, liner notes, and other collateral works), chart, music database or other Copyright.

Deezer constantly updating and re-negotiating about agreements with artist and rights' holders ,and thousands of tracks are added to Deezer catalogue every single week.


Sometimes tracks are temporarily removed ,but can be add again on Deezer catalogue .

 

I'm sure that any artist want their music on all music platform , but sometimes rights' holders can be reason why is can be so .

I just checked, and although there are other King Crimson albums there, “In the Court of the Crimson King” is not.
This is very strange, and to be honest the official response here is very unsatisfactory.  A specific question was asked and a vague general response was provided.

This is typical of this forum, sadly.

Hi @soakes !

There is no "official response" here. I'm just user like everybody else ,but a little more active here trying to help and answer on questions best as I can . 
Answer is more than good and if this is not satisfactory response then I really don't know how that satisfactory response must look like !?

Typical of this forum is that is many of them are satisfied with answers  ,but is always there someone who is not .

My apologies.  I assumed you had some official affiliation.  I guess this was based on the way you expressed your response… “we’re really sorry...”etc.

Why has Deezer not offered any response?

“Why has Deezer not offered any response?” Are you kidding me or what !?

I withdraw my apology.

As I mentioned, your response is a generalisation that is simply unhelpful in this situation.  The question asked was a very specific one and I, for one, would also like to know the answer.

No, I am not ”kidding”.

Please explain who is the “we” you refer to in your response?

No?

Really why are you even here

Damn, this sucks. Just as I was re-discovering them via their song “21st Century Schizoid Man”, and remembered “Hey, that’s a great song, let me check the rest of the album.” and poof, it wasn’t there. Let’s hope that it’ll be re-added soon, because Deezer is my favourite music streaming platform. But maybe I need to buy physical media too, just in case this happens.

Hello @soakes @DonZeriouS @charleshubert.roger apologies for the long wait on a feedback about why this album was taken down.

First let me highlight the help from @Nina Nebo that like all our users here, they try to help as much as they can without asking nothing in return.

So please lets respect all opinions, tips and troubleshootings that aim to make this a better place.

Regarding the album I can see that we got a notification to remove the album couple weeks ago from the distributor.

I have just shared with the catalog team if there is any chance to have it back. Stay tune for news in the coming days.
