King Crimson: In the Wake of Poseidon (2025 Mix / CD) [Blu-ray]

The complete recording sessions for King Crimson’s majestic In The Wake of Poseidon on CD/Blu-Ray.

When “In The Wake of Poseidon” was first issued in 1970, Melody Maker ran the unforgettable headline: “If Wagner were alive he’d work with King Crimson”. Stranger still, this was just two months after King Crimson had issued a single “Cat Food” & appeared on Britain’s Top of the Pops miming – as all bands did in those days on the TV show – to a pre-recorded playback of the song.

The Blu-Ray features completely new mixes* of the album in Dolby Atmos, 5.1 DTS-HD MA Surround & Hi-Res Stereo by Steven Wilson (*except Devil’s Triangle) / New Elemental Mixes of four of the tracks in Hi-Res Stereo by David Singleton, plus two additional versions of Cadence and Cascade / Complete recording sessions of the album in Hi-Res Stereo / The Original Stereo Master of the album (30th Anniversary edition). The CD contains the 2025 mix with Devil’s Triangle sourced from the alt mixes (as featured originally on the Sailors’ Tales box set), and the new Elemental Mixes.

Presented in a replica mini-vinyl style packaging with booklet including photos and sleeve-notes from King Crimson biographer Sid Smith.
