Limited edition release of the 40th anniversary stereo mixes by Steven Wilson and Robert Fripp
Though working with a transitional lineup the album sounds remarkably cohesive. Like the debut album, In The Wake Of Poseidon was self produced and displayed an increased confidence in the use of the recording studio. The breadth of material recorded is even broader than the debut. The short "Peace" appears in 3 different settings bookending the album's longer tracks. One of the band's prettiest ballads "Cadence and Cascade" leads into the powerful title track, while the album version of "Catfood" is followed by "The Devil's Triangle," an ambitious sound collage that seems to owe more to contemporary classical and free jazz roots than any form of rock music. The short burst of In the Court of the Crimson King in the final part of the track eerily anticipates modern sampling techniques.
Upon release, In The Wake Of Poseidon reached #4 on the UK album charts, one position higher than their debut and the highest chart placing the band enjoyed in Britain.
