From wikipedia...

"The album was recorded in September and October 1968 at Olympic Studios, London, shortly after the band's formation. The sessions took place before the group had secured a recording contract and were paid for directly, and took 36 hours and less than £2,000 to complete."

I can't quit you baby / you shook me.

Love the whole album actually...

[Doc Holliday]

I quite like communication breakdown!
I was 16 when I first heard it and it reminded me of the same sort of vibe of “my generation by the who”.
Less than 3 minutes, great for radio play, great driving pop song.

In the beginning here there's a lot from the fall of 1968 into 1969...

King Crimson had their first ever rehearsal on 13th January 1969.
