Misprinted Labels and Sleeve
ILPS 9127 A//1 L

B1 position was taken here by ‘Cat Food’ instead.
Actual B3 ‘The Devil's Triangle’ did not appear on record cover and label as a main title including subtitles (a,b,c), but as an independent track ('2' on label); the 3 subtitles (also looking like independent instrumentals) were numbered '3'.,'4'.,'5'. on label.
‘Peace-An End’ was '6' on label, but it should have been track '4'.
Only German Stateside 1970 release King Crimson - In The Wake Of Poseidon , among early issues, seem to show on side B label the complete and real sequence, correct timings included. More info on 'release history'.
Mel Collins of "Circus" appears by courtesy of Transatlantic Records, Gordon Haskell appears by courtesy of C.B.S. Records.
The first UK pressing of this A1/B1 matrix contains withdrawn version of 'In The Wake Of Poseidon (Including Libra's Theme)', which is longer than that of later pressings (8'26" vs. 7'56").
This longer version was reissued for the first time in CD as a part of 40th Anniversary Set from UK, US, and Japan in 2010.
VINYL: NM/M-
Another absolutely stunning and immaculate piece of vinyl, just beautiful. Rich and deep gloss on both sides with no signs of use whatsoever. Visually stunning and with perfect audio playback.
