Voting for King Crimson


If I were strictly considering historical/cultural importance, I'd rate In the Court a lot higher, but historical/cultural importance are completely irrelevant to me when I'm rating how much I like something.

Again, KC since they are my favorite prog band........though I really like Hot Rats, played it a lot at college,  but it simply doesn't have the power and grandeur that the first Crimson album does....but in the end they are completely different animals and it is a strange comparison of albums for a poll.

Tough call as I love both.

I love this Zappa record, but I had to give it to KC on this one.
