3 x KING CRIMSON LPs
"IN THE WAKE OF POSEIDON" LP
1970 1st UK PRESSING ON THE PINK 'i' LABEL
ILPS 9127
A1 & B1
1st Pressing Matrix Numbers
Cover: 1st pressing E J Day heavily textured gatefold cover. Has been taped at the edges, corners & spine by previous owner - who also added the track timings alongside the track titles inside the gatefold. Two very small sticker scuffs on front cover. Rates as VG.
Labels: VG. Has the timings written alongside track titles.
Vinyl: Looks to be VG+ to Near Excellent. Play tested. No skips/jumps on my system. The beginning of Side 1 (first 40 seconds) is crackly - as is the beginning of Side 2. There is some crackle during a lot of the quieter moments but hardly noticeable during the rocking tracks. I rate the overall listening experience as VG with some tracks playing excellent and others as Good.
