Disc One features five additional tracks drawn from the original recording sessions. Disc Two features the 2004 remaster of the original album plus bonus tracks.

Disc Four features audio restored bootlegs of the band's legendary performances at Hyde Park, London in July 1969 and Fillmore East in November 1969. Disc Five is a bonus disc featuring a vinyl transfer of the ultra rare, U.S. radio promo only, mono album plus the equally rare US radio promo only single edit of 'Court of the Crimson King'. The DVD-A features a 5.1 DTS Mix and High Resolution Stereo mixes. Panegyric.
