Near copy?

The album "repeats the style of their first album". Actually the 2nd, 3rd, 4th songs are an exact copy of songs on the first, the only difference being to some extent melodical and textual. Can someone find a reference? --SCIdude (talk) 15:08, 17 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Possible original research in "Album Cover" section

The section about the album's cover seems to contain original research about the descriptions of each face, as neither reference in the preceding line gives such detailed descriptions. Liassica (talk) 22:24, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

King Crimson lineup dispute

I'm reverting the claims recently added to this article that Gordon Haskell and Mel Collins were official members of King Crimson at the time of In the Wake of Poseidon. For those who don't know, there's been an ongoing struggle on this article over who was and wasn't in King Crimson. The question arises because sources pretty unanimously state that Robert Fripp and Peter Sinfield were the only permanent members when the album was recorded, but other contributors to the album like Keith Tippet and the Giles brothers were contemporaneously presented as part of the face of King Crimson. There doesn't seem to be a definitive answer to the question. Some of the editors arguing over the issue claim that the liner notes support their version, but this is not true; the liner notes credit all the album's performers as simply "Personnel". The idea that Haskell and Collins were members is also very counterintuitive, since Collins appears on just two tracks and Haskell on just one, and that one not even on his usual instrument. The previous version of the article, in which all the performers are listed under "Musicians", is a reasonable compromise position which both accommodates all views on the subject and is consistent with how they're credited on the album itself, so I'm restoring that.
