The other changes are mostly actual solidified additions, such as flutist and sax player Mel Collins, who adds both the most serene and frenzied moments on the album with his instruments, respectively. Future singer Gordon Haskell also makes a brief appearance on the dreadfully dreary song Cadence and Cascade.
Previously, King Crimson had done I Talk to the Wind , a slow and moody flute driven track that was emotionally touching and moving. Much in the same manner they recreated 21st Century Schizoid Man for this album, so they do with that track on Cascade and Cadence. Except, unlike last time, this version is just plodding and a complete waste of time. However, the preceding track finally shows promise for the record, as In the Wake of Poseidon finally gives this album a sense of self.
When you finally reach Cat Food , the album finally hits its peak. In fitting fashion, the centerpiece song of the album also encompasses it the most clearly.

Pictures of a City is brimming with numerous guitar overdubs, a tour de force of densely- wrought picking. His work on this track, and in particular the sublime flute on Cadence and Cascade, ensured his recruitment to a new incarnation of Crimson. The track would later be performed briefly by the Islands-era band and was revisited in the studio in the early 90s when Fripp asked Adrian Belew to record a vocal for the Frame By Frame boxed set.
Echoing both the sombre aspect of Epitaph and the hymnal qualities of Court, In The Wake of Poseidon is nevertheless an outstanding track in its own right. Thanks to an irresistible combination of anticipation sparked by the runaway success of the debut, along with an overwhelming curiosity to find out what Crimson would do next, Poseidon actually outsold Court in the UK album charts where it reached No.
Poseidon was one of the Crimson albums Steven Wilson was especially looking forward to remixing for 5. Click here to access the sessions scroll to the bottom of the page. Read all about it here.
