I've tried and failed to get through The Power to Believe several times now. It was just all so predictable by the time of that album. Fly From Here isn't that great, but at least I got through it and enjoyed it. I'll vote for Yes.

In this case King Crimson. Easily. No I'm not drugs.

I've not heard the KC album, but I've noticed there's generally not much love for Fly from Here in this community, which is a shame. I think it's pretty good. Far better than some of their post 'Going for the One' efforts in my opinion. I think it marginally better than Drama too. Wasn't most of it composed around that time?

Fly From Here isn't great but it's still better than King Crimson's recent efforts.
Frankly, 2 bands who are living on past glories and should probably have jacked it in long ago.

I believe in the power of King Crimson. In this case, Yes can only fly from here.

These are the most recent albums by two classic prog bands. Which do you think is better?
