Queste sono le uniche inclusioni rilasciate in precedenza.

I CD includono il mix stereo del 2023 e le parti strumentali dell’album, gli elemental mix e le bobine master selezionate. La nuova ristampa si presenta come un’edizione con copertina apribile 2x contenente i singoli dischi più il libretto con le note sulla copertina del biografo dei King Crimson e scrittore Prog Sid Smith, confezionato in un cofanetto rigido.
