Album UK 1973 on Island Records label
Rock (Prog Rock, Experimental)
Probably the very 1st press, because, unlike other early releases, this one is missing "All songs published by E.G. Music Ltd © 1973" on cover rear which was added only later. Includes a (commonly thin) printed inner sleeve. Cover rear and inner sleeve has 'basing street london w11' beneath the Island logo. Initial copies had that oval 'King Crimson' sticker. Recorded in January/February 1973 in Command Studios, London, UK.
