A terrific album. Not too dissimilar from the first album, which is no surprise and no disappointment. My favorite songs are Cadence and Cascade, In The Wake Of Poseidon and Cat Food. The only song I don’t care for is Pictures Of A City, which to me sounds like a re-write of 21st Century Schizoid Man. Wonderful gatefold cover, which makes it essential to have on vinyl.
- Not their best.

This is pretty much In the Court of the Crimson King part two. The songs are not as strong as the songs from their first album. Not saying that it is a bad album because it is far from bad. The best songs from the album are “Pictures of the City”, “Cadence and Cascade”, and the weird but enjoyable “Cat Food”. I am not a big fan of the title track which is pretty much an inferior version of “Epitaph” or the “The Devils Triangle”. One good thing about this album is that it still had Michael Giles on drums because he gives a great performance if not better than the first album. Great album, but there are better Crimson albums.

I remember this from my childhood (eight year old) beginning to learn to play the guitar,In The Wake Of Poseidon was and is still my favorite from the album.These guys along with Yes,ELP,and The Dregs shaped the way I listened to music for life (very genre free) I love Music and listening to any music from the pass takes me back in memory of times with loved ones who are no longer here and some times I sit on the patio headphones on looking into the blue sky and do just that (go back in time) This is great Music,Peace

Back when In the Wake of Posiden first came out, I was a little dissapointed because I wanted m ore of In the Court of the Crimson King. I can apprecieate this music so much more now, though, now that I'm not a teenager with narrow tastes. I saw King Croimspon live a few nights ago and they played a killer rendition of "Picutes of a City".
- Strong First half...

Everything is great until you get to “The Devil’s Triangle” this feels like album filler to me. And it may have been since the band was most likely disintegrating then. Thanks to iTunes you can get the key tracks! Happy this finally got remastered too!
- Good
